The table describes what to return and what to keep with you.
Product | What to return | Do not return |
NUC Mini PCs (These products have memory, drive, and operating system already installed. Individual components can't be replaced separately.) |
|
|
NUC Kits (These products do not ship with memory, drive, or operating system already installed.) |
|
|
NUC Kits containing Compute Element (This Kit shipped from Asus without memory or drive. You (or your place of purchase) installed memory, drive, and operating system.) |
|
|
NUC Boards | Return only the Asus NUC Board. | Do not return all components you installed (memory modules, hard drives, wireless adapters). |
Caution | Asus isn't able to track or return user-installed components, including items included in the box upon return. Unless otherwise mentioned above, remove all memory and disks from your NUC before sending it to our Warranty Center. Where applicable, make sure to backup all applications and data. Asus is not responsible for any data loss occurring from the warranty process. |
Asus NUC Kits sent as warranty replacements don't include a Microsoft Windows* license sticker. If your Asus NUC has a Windows license sticker, we recommend you carefully peel it off the chassis. You can take a photo of it for future reference before returning it to Asus for a warranty replacement. Microsoft Windows stickers aren't available as fulfillment items.
# General guidelines
- Back up all your applications and data where applicable. Asus is not responsible for any data loss that occurs during the warranty process.
- Refer to your email confirmation for instructions on which parts and accessories you should keep. Asus doesn’t retain any parts and accessories and can’t return them to you.
- Write your RMA case number on the outside of the box and enclose a copy of your email confirmation.
- Replacement units may not be shipped to you in original retail packaging.
# Packaging guidelines
If you have the original retail box, you can use that box to return the product:
- If the original box inserts aren’t available, wrap the item on all sides with bubble wrap or similar cushioning material to ensure a snug fit with minimal movement.
- Pack the retail box into a sturdy outer box, with at least two inches of bubble wrap, loose fill foam, or similar cushioning to ensure a snug fit with minimal movement.
- You can procure an outer box of adequate size from your local shipping store or post office at your own cost.
Note | The replacement NUC may be delivered to you not in the original retail box, but in the grey box. If you would like to keep the original retail box, please proceed with the instruction below. |
If you don’t have the original retail box, or would like to keep the original box:
- Pack the product in a sturdy box with enough additional packing material to prevent shifting in transit.
- You can procure a shipping box of adequate size from your local shipping store or post office at your own cost.
If you’re returning more than one item, protect each item with enough bubble wrap, loose fill foam, or similar cushioning material to prevent shifting during transit.
