Bundle, Presentation and Manual

Like almost all other XPCs, Shuttle give you the bare minimum in the bundle to get the XPC setup and working, along with the basic driver software and manuals needed to do so. That doesn't change with the SN95G5.

You also get a pair of screw-on feet for the underside of the front of the chassis, SATA and PATA data cables, a Y-power splitter for powering your graphics card and a floppy ribbon to round things off.

The box art style apes what Shuttle used with the SB81P, going with a cool corporate theme, pushing the media centre aspects of a powerful XPC, along with extolling the virtues of its style.

The manuals - one for putting together the XPC, one for the FN95 motherboard and one for the NVIDIA RAID support - are all concise, clearly written and well though out, allowing you to extract the information you need quickly and easily. It's hard to get a manual wrong these days, but it always pays to check.
