Is the DXP6800 Pro right for you?
Large shared archive
Six SATA bays, two M.2 slots and dual 10GbE match a growing home or lab archive.[1]
Home lab
Official FAQ lists Docker and VMs on DXP6800 Pro; igor’sLAB booted a Windows 11 VM on 8GB but RAM headroom is tight.[2][8]

Living with it
Six-bay expansion, network tests and alerts
Choose the relevant throughput test
Notebookcheck measured 9.5 Gbit/s iPerf networking. Dong measured NVMe RAID0 copies at 837.50 MB/s read and 801.80 MB/s write. StorageReview tested six-HDD RAID6: 190/316 read/write 4K IOPS. Its 128K chart exceeds one 10GbE port and lacks a full topology description, so it cannot predict single-client speed.[5][4][9]
Budget noise, power and monitoring
Notebookcheck measured 36.59–41.93W idle with four IronWolf 4TB HDDs and reported notification problems on UGOS 1.16.0.0089. Igor measured 40.2dBA idle at 40cm with a 33.2dBA room; its one-NVMe power setup is different. Verify alerts on the installed build and place the NAS away from quiet seating.[5][8]

Dong Knows Tech (2024)
Essential NAS functions worked during the two-week evaluation without crashes observed by the reviewer. In the highest-performance NVMe configuration Dong tried, sustained copy speeds were slower than a DS923+ with NVMe storage and a 10GbE upgrade, and felt similar to regular SATA SSDs. Test scope: Exact six-bay i5 enclosure on historical UGOS. Daily-use and NVMe-copy observations; not proof that 2026 firmware matches.

UGREEN NASync DXP6800 Pro Review
Tested: DXP6800 Pro, UGOS Pro 1.0.0.1708 (original specification table); more than two weeks. Original 10GbE read/write charts distinguish NVMe/SATA SSD/HDD RAID layouts. Exact drive MPNs, client and file profile unspecified. Two NVMe in RAID 0 described; six 4TB HDDs used for RAID 5 initialization.

Limits to keep in mind
- Single-sample two-week use is not a reliability study.
- Affiliate links disclosed; sample-supply provenance not stated.
- Original live article and both charts were independently read; earlier direct-HTML/Wayback limitations do not imply missing tests.
- Historical SAN/rsync/app gaps are build-specific; current UGOS pages now advertise SAN Manager and rsync. Drive models/client/cache settings are incomplete.

The review reported unreliable push notifications for malfunctions; this matters for unattended monitoring. The reviewer measured materially higher idle consumption with four HDDs than with no HDDs. Test scope: Exact six-bay i5 model; iPerf3 measures network throughput rather than disk-file performance.

Great hardware, not quite there yet - Ugreen NASync DXP6800 Pro review
Tested: DXP6800 Pro, UGOS Pro 1.16.0.0089 (original specification table); iPerf3 10GbE; power with no HDDs and four Seagate IronWolf 4TB HDDs. Exact peer/RAID and acoustic distance/background not stated.

Limits to keep in mind
- Manufacturer supplied the sample free for review; outlet says no third-party influence, advance review or publication obligation.
- Notification issue was observed on UGOS 1.16.0.0089; verify installed firmware behavior.
- Noise figures lack distance/background and cannot support cross-model ranking.
- Specification block contains LPDDR5/dimension errors; current exact-model official DDR5 and dimensions take precedence.

A 10 GB file copy saturated the 2.5GbE path; Btrfs avoided mid-transfer drops seen on the other tested volume format. Docker OpenSpeedTest ran for ten minutes as a network-path test; it did not measure NVMe-to-NVMe disk throughput. Separate Windows file-copy screenshots show an instantaneous 283 MB/s for both ext4 and Btrfs. Test scope: Exact six-bay i5 model. Throughput is 2.5GbE-limited. Firmware is 2024 UGOS, not a 2026 build. Noise/power methods are stated and should not be mixed with Notebookcheck’s unspecified dB(A).

- Power used one NVMe with HDDs removed; exact NVMe capacity/RAID not stated.
- Historical UGOS 1.0.0.0940 software limits may not match current build; regional SKU 25899 in affiliate listing is not automatically US SKU 25898.

Before you buy
DXP6800 Pro prices and ownership costs
Account for drives and running cost
Street price on 2026-09-11 was $1,099.99 diskless at UGREEN and Newegg. Six HDDs, optional NVMe, a 10GbE switch and a RAM upgrade are extra. Idle watts with four NAS HDDs were already in the high 30s in Notebookcheck’s setup.[7][6][5]
Place it for the PSU fan
igor’sLAB’s 40 cm idle reading is already well above a quiet room background and is attributed to the power-supply fan, not the CPU cooler. Dong also heard unexplained fan ramps. Plan a utility space, not a bedside shelf.[8][4]
Three-year main-device warranty
Official warranty policy names the DXP6800/8800 series for three years; supplied network cable and power adapter are one year. Purchase-region conditions apply.[10]

Questions before buying
Does dual 10GbE guarantee 20GbE to one client?
No. Each port is 10GbE; client, network, protocol, RAID and cache determine transfers. Do not add link rates to predict one file copy.[1]
What warranty applies?
Official warranty policy names the DXP6800/8800 series for three years; supplied network cable and power adapter are one year. Purchase-region conditions apply.[10]
Does a snapshot replace backup?
No. Keep an independent copy and test restoration on the installed UGOS build. General snapshot support does not prove immutable retention or full endpoint recovery.[3]
Which firmware had the notification issue?
Notebookcheck lists UGOS Pro 1.16.0.0089 in its July 2026 review. Treat the finding as a reason to test alerts on your installation, not as an all-version failure rate.[5]
