Ugreen DXP4800Pro NAS Unboxing, Review, and Teardown — 4-Bay NAS, i3-1315U, Storage Server
The article is a detailed unboxing, review, and teardown of the Ugreen DXP4800Pro 4-bay NAS, powered by an Intel i3-1315U. The author upgraded from a QNAP NAS, citing UGOS Pro's open, customizable Debian-based system and superior hardware value. Key specifications include dual network ports (10GbE and 2.5GbE), HDMI 2.1, USB 3.2 Gen2, SD slot, two M.2 PCIe Gen4 slots, and dual DDR5 memory slots. The teardown reveals quality engineering: ASMedia SATA controllers, per-drive power switching, an IT8613E management controller, a substantial CPU power delivery system, an Intel I226-V 2.5GbE controller, and a dedicated 10GbE controller with heatsink. Performance testing showed 9.38Gbps LAN throughput and Unixbench scores of 1652 single-core and 8859 multi-core. The review highlights useful features: Docker support, AI-powered photo recognition, integrated media scraping, snapshots, and effective remote relay access. However, shortcomings are documented: immature virtual machines, inability to benchmark drives already in storage pools, limited cloud-drive integration, restrictive Baidu sync, missing VLAN support, and limited DDNS flexibility. The article provides practical insight for prospective NAS buyers evaluating hardware quality, software maturity, and upgradeability.
