The Thecus runs on a version of the Linux kernel. I presume it is a
custom build as opposed to being based on any particular disrtibution.

To install SlimServer on a Thecus, you download the specially built
module file into a specific location and the unit then installs it.
This is a similar way to most NAS boxes, the advantage of Thecus
modules is they are pretty open so if Thecus were to drop support, the
community can carry on with it. You can't do that with the Infrant.

As a rule of humb, all NAS boxes run Linux. Some enterprise level
systems run Windows Server, but you are talking several thousand
dollars/pounds for these
