Once turned, we're presented with the usual full listing of the card's features, updated to include the latest additions from the SC Team, such as multi-saver and Supercard's own Blue Light Engine for optimal performance on a wide range of microSD I/O speeds; a barcode and the standard hardware compatibility breakdown are directly beneath. A touch of nostalgy: the four icons before the features list are the latest evolution of the "instruction manual" found on older Supercards, that being a set of pictures explaining in brief how to use the flashcard.

The DS ONE package is factory-sealed by an adhesive strip, which doubles as both a warranty seal and a mean to keep the box closed: once carefully peeled off - it comes loose pretty easily, but we wouldn't advice you to simply rip it off to avoid causing damage - the contents are accessible.

Luxurious: this is the first word that comes to our minds while detailing the innards of the package: on the left, a small pouch holds a one-sheet instructions manual and a somewhat more concealed miniCD with an older revision of the Supercard ONE OS (which will be further detailed in a while), while the entire right part is a large, black piece of foam which houses the DS ONE itself and a small microSD/HC reader.

So far, this has been by all means one of the best card packagings we've seen: even without being made of tin, like those round G6 cans, the DS ONE box is well-built and finely printed (admittedly, we don't consider Engrish to be a problem), really shining once the user opens it. The card and card reader are well protected and everything is carefully arranged for ease of access, which is always a plus considering how such hardware is aimed not only at hackers and power users, but also at newcomers.

Inside the Box

Let's now take a closer look at the content, starting with the instructions manual and driver disc.

Admittedly, more than a manual this small sheet of paper is more of a quick reference card, printed in both Chinese and English (one language per side), yet it proves useful for detailing basic operation of the hardware and an outline of its most advanced features, such as the three modes we'll describe in the relevant section of the review. We appreciated how crucial features such as the self-test mode were mentioned, along with common troubleshooting and firmware update questions; as complete as PDF manuals can be, printed instructions always prove invaluable for hardware as "uncommon" as flashcards. The only downside is the incredibly small font used: we were unsure whether to use a magnifier or not to read more clearly.
