Wow... This is a really confusing post... but I guess that's an indication of how confused you are.
Only Rookie teams received a new cRIO in their kit. See
here. Veterans are expected to reuse the cRIO and several other key components from year to year.
The cRIO is not white... it's gun metal grey. It has those blue and grey modules that plug into it. I can't think of any large white module last year.
I believe what you found in your kit (if it came in a white plastic case) is a Cypress First Touch Kit 003. This device is expected to be plugged into the classmate Driver Station to provide I/O to knobs or buttons, etc that your team uses on a custom driver console.
