Packaging and Contents
The IN WIN Na comes in a large brown box with red text and images printed on it. Simplicity, it would seem, is the focus of the IN WIN Na. The front of the box has an image with the outline of the Na, and it gives a vague idea of what the product actually is. It isn’t exactly explicit, honestly, for the potential buyer who has never seen the product. As for the back of the box, various information regarding the features and specifications are given. This information is the same as that found on IN WIN’s website.


The front packaging



The back packaging


Given the fact that the IN WIN Na was designed with style in mind, IN WIN has taken the extra steps to make little things pretty. This is the case of the seal on the box.


The seal


As like any other product, the package is opened after breaking the seal. All of the contents of the Na are neatly put into different compartments. In all, with everything taken out of the packaging, we find that there are 4 sections that hold the contents. In my opinion, the packaging material seemed to be in excess, especially when you consider that the accessories were individually and together packed in a plastic bag. A single plastic bag for all of the accessories would have been fine.


The contents of the package


In terms of package contents, we have the IN WIN Na enclosure, a 12V power adapter, a 3 feet USB A-male-to-B-male cable, a 19 ½ inches eSATA cable and four screws to secure the hard drive. Although the 3 feet USB cable is more than enough if you are planning to place the hard drive enclosure near your computer case, such as on the adjacent table, the 19 ½ inches eSATA cable is very underwhelming. The length of the eSATA cable allows you to place the enclosure, perhaps, on top of the computer case if you are using the eSATA port on the I/O panel of the motherboard. IN WIN should have provided a longer eSATA cable. A minimum of 3 feet would have been much better.
