today I'll be only sort of unboxing a product that is truly unique I've never
seen anything that is exactly like this this is an LG product I don't know
exactly what it's called it's the N1 T1 this particular model so why don't we
call it that we'll call it the N1 T1 and since I can't properly unbox oh actually
why don't we leave this on here because that has some marketing information that
I can tell you about so the N1 T1 is a network storage device and I apologize
for the Box being open already but this is a marketing sample so it's kind of
making the rounds and I get to check it out now okay so it has fast reads and
write speeds okay it's a network storage device you can email your file through
downloadable links you can use thumbnail view to cck check your images it's a
print server it's compatible with different operating systems including
Mac it can be used as a torrent download server okay it has a simple and easy
user interface a virtual dis library to store and manage all of your DVDs and CD
files that's kind of cool multiple user
access time machine support it's an iTunes server and it is energy star 5
but that's not all wait there's more
okay so here on the front you see that it is okay like when I peeled the
stickers off the shipping labels see it took up all of the uh all of the print
on the box so it's going to be very very difficult for me to read this and show
it to you at the same time so here's what I'll do
um yeah okay I'll just kind of sort of
you might be able to read it okay so it's network storage that's cool so it's
got gigabit Ethernet here on the back okay so you see that gigabit Ethernet
right there it's an external hard drive and optical drive mini notebook friendly
feature so you can see right here it has a USB port and it also has a yeah well a
USB port so it also has a switch right here so you can switch it from nas mode
right there okay let's see if I can get my camera to focus good camera okay so
you can go from asz mode to external optical drive you can see right here at
the front there's an optical drive slot that you can put Optical media
in okay and then you can also switch it to external hard drive mode so you can
use that USB port to connect to a computer and use it as an external
storage drive or as an external DVD and CD
drive very cool so it has a backup button right here it has an eject button
those are the two buttons there uh here's a bunch of other stuff it
supports including UPnP okay
DLNA time machine we already talked about public link and system backup okay
so full system file backup and restore it has remote access via
internet which is pretty handy for anas and it's a multimedia system so enjoy a
multimedia content through your PS3 or to your TV or to your TV
directly cool all right here most of
this we've talked about already I believe and the back oh that would have
been easier to read wouldn't have yes yes it would have so let's open up
this box and see what's inside in terms of accessories we've
looked at the unit of fair bit already but we'll take a closer look at that as
well okay there's a USB cable which you will need if you want to plug it in via
USB there's a gigabit Ethernet cable which you will need if you want to plug
it in bya gigabit Ethernet there is a power cable which you will need if you
want to power the device and there is a bunch of documentation that you will
want to read if you want to understand the device last but not least there is a
box aha I found out how to open the box
and in the box is another AC to DC power
converter if you want to power the device properly and have it not blow
up okay so why don't we just have a closer look at the nas external optical
drive external hard drive itself so it's got what appears to be a 40 mm fan here
in the back that's going to cool down the hard drive inside it's got a power
switch here it's got that button we already or the switch rather that we already talked about has a Kensington
lock there's your USB port here's a little holder for the cord so it doesn't
get so if it gets pulled on or anything like that it's not going to pull it right out of the Jack there's your
gigabit Ethernet and LG rates this thing
at 60 megabytes per second read
and 40 megab per second right there's an
LG logo on the side very nice very slick
and then as I mentioned before this is a super multi- drive so it's DVD CD reader
writer okay there's your backup button there's your eject button the data side
goes here if you're having trouble with which way to put in the optical media
and then here is yet another summary of all of the different certifications and
stuff that it supports which is also here to the top it's got a nice glossy
black finish on parts of it and then it's got a nice glossy white finish on other parts thank you for checking out
