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.
OWON HDS160 Oscilloscope Multimeter: Unboxing, Review, and Teardown
The article presents a hands-on unboxing, review, and teardown of the OWON HDS160, a 4½-digit handheld oscilloscope multimeter purchased for 365 RMB. Its main appeal is the built-in 1 MHz oscilloscope that works with standard multimeter test leads, enabling direct voltage or current waveform measurement and automatic detection of the input jack to switch ranges. Key specifications include 60000-count display, DC voltage accuracy of ±(0.05%+5 digits), CAT III 1000 V safety rating, 2.8-inch IPS screen, and a single 18650 battery. Field tests cover USB voltage, AC mains waveform (50 Hz, 328 V peak, 232 V RMS), STM32 board inrush current, and low-power current measurements. The teardown reveals an HC32F460PETB MCU, HY3131 multimeter front-end, MAX6006AESA voltage reference, SGM41511 charger, GD25Q128ESIG flash memory, and infrared components for jack detection. The author notes a slightly crooked Type-C port and a clock that resets when the battery is removed. Readers gain insight into the device’s capabilities, component choices, internal construction, and practical limitations, useful for evaluating its suitability for low-frequency electrical and embedded debugging tasks.

iKuai IK-X9 Ceiling-Mount AP Simple Unboxing Review and Teardown, Tri-Band WiFi 7, BE5000, 2.5G Port
The iKuai IK-X9 is a tri-band Wi-Fi 7 ceiling AP (BE5000, 2.5G port). Testing shows 2x2 MU-MIMO limits performance: with two clients on 5.1GHz, per-device throughput caps near 800Mbps; no MLO or 6GHz in current firmware. A bug prevents connection if all three SSIDs match. Peak download reached 1696Mbps on 5.1GHz at 1m. Power draw 8-10W; aluminum backplate aids cooling. Overall, inferior to 4x4 Wi-Fi 6 APs.
