Taking the unit out of the box, the size and weight mean it can be easily placed on a desktop and doesn't need to be hidden away in a network cupboard. The configuration is also extremely easy to work out, with four main drive bays at the front with quick-release lever access that enables you to mount your selection of drives with various capacities and speeds. Then, removing the side panel, secured with two screws, two ultra-fast NVMe M.2 SSD slots are revealed, as well as the upgradable dual channel RAM.
