Ugreen NASync DXP8800 Ultra review
Ugreen NASync DXP8800 Ultra: 30-second review Ugreen has, out of nowhere, developed an uncanny habit of building the NAS you wanted, then building an even bigger one.
The NASync DXP8800 Plus was the flagship of the original range, and the NASync DXP8800 Ultra has now superseded it.
The Ultra is not a redesign.
The chassis, the bay count and port layout all carry over.
On paper, even the dimensions are identical, at 365 x 258 x 189mm.
All that’s new about the Ultra is inside.
That means the same eight SATA bays and two M.2 slots.
Filled with 32TB hard drives and 8TB SSDs, it offers up to 272TB in a single box.
Dual 10GbE, two Thunderbolt 4 ports, an 8K-capable HDMI output, and a PCIe slot remain unchanged.
The revamp includes a newer Intel Core 7 150U processor and raises the memory ceiling from 64GB to a whopping 96GB.
Those are welcome upgrades, but getting these extras over the Plus model is not inexpensive.
The asking price for the Ultra is $1,779.99, making it the most expensive model in its DXP range, though less than the iDX series.
Hardcore NAS users will want to know one thing.
Is the outlay worth the extra over the Plus? That entirely depends on how you intend to use this NAS.
