- Hi ElaineM as it was as major issue which I found out can I expect a compensation (gift) for the same ?
As it was a defect which your QA team forgot to identify.
Why? Because there is nothing wrong. Completely legal, completely correct. Matter of fact many vendors (even the SoC makers sample boards) used the blue ones.
Still, the fact that you think blue is USB 3.0 is wrong. Only the specs are relevant. Nobody will update pictures in this consumer class market. Even less, no reseller or retailer will update his online offering.
Years ago, a NAS vendor has introduced an "updated" Mk.II or "plus" model of an existing product - along with a newer SoC two of the four USB ports were updated to USB 3.0. The marketing images remained the same.
It's a budget box. The performance of the processor is much to limited anyway to make use of the USB 3.0 bandwidth - there would not be any advantage. Buy it, or leave it.
