Conclusion
Considering that the N4100 is Thecus's first independently designed NAS product, and that the company itself is still young, this device is a solid offering. It worked flawlessly during our tests, features good build quality, and allows easy integration of additional storage space into existing networks, complete with authorization structures (LDAP/Active Directory). The use of CIFS (Common Internet File System) may explain the low transfer rates, an area that could definitely use some improvement. On the other hand, it also allows the N4100 to be accessed by Linux/Unix/Mac OS systems.
