*Update on the use of 3rd Party OS’ on UGREEN NAS with hardware, with regard to warranty*: “The Ugreen team confirms that whatever is promised in their warranty policy will not change, which only covers the hardware. They also mention that there is a risk of damage if you install a third-party OS, including data loss and compatibility issues, etc.” – Ugreen Representative, 26/3/24

I would buy it to install linux or Windows on it. Great form factor for the harddrives and the n100 doesnt make much noise either since it is passively cooled. Do all of them have hdmi?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
If I can install debian/proxmox on this and have all the drivers I need (SATA controller, USB controller, Ethernet controller, etc.) then this is an obvious choice for me.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
这个品牌系统中国以外版本需要手机号注册验证吗？
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
im new to NAS devices, can these units be located in a computer rack or does it need to be connected to your MAC or PC?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Do they come with the hard drives or do you need to purchase them separately?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Wouldn’t be better if it were 4k 120 or 240 as a movie nas? TVs are 120 & 240 capable
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Looks good. Hope the software is good.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I’ve checked in taobao, lulian (Ugreen in China) has only DX4600 (Plus and Pro ver.) in the market rightnow.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Perhaps it’s worth checking on Orico MetaBox Pro 5-bay as well..
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Power consumption at the wall?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Any idea how much the 4 bay is going to cost around?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I like UGREEN because they manufacture a lot of usefull accessories. This NAS looks great with its price and interfaces.
But there is one point, that you should take in mind: can you be sure, that UGREEN will support it so many years as QNAP/Synology/ZyXEL do? I mean firmware, security updates and app center. Searching for home-made firmware on forums a year later and installing them manually through the SSH – is not what a buyer of a ready-made solution expects, if he isn’t an enthusiast who enjoys tinkering with Linux.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
and the software?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Hi there, you were commenting that more manufacturers are creating hardware appliances that can be used with Open Source software. Which are those appliances? Do you have a review of those? It would be interesting to buy something already built so we dont have to worry for example about compatibility topics or “what goes well” with unRAID for instance. Thanks!
Terramaster can be used for other OS, same with Qnap. But we have hopes for ugreen to be truly hardware only solution to reduce the costs.
Looking forward as well to see the software put in it, is it secure n feature for small business, which I am not very confident in at this point in time*, also would love to see your channel reviewing other alternative OS to DSM.
*I love ugreen but for their cables, charger n accessories still

The USB 3 gen 2 (3.2) ports are useful for high speed backup to an external device. After backup the external device can be detached from device and network so it can be used as insurance against ransomware.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
UGREEN make some good hardware/cables, so I expect a decent level of quality from this. Hopefully they allow the end user to install their own OS, as I don’t entirely trust a Chinese company, with the security of my data.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Wish they would have gone with the i3-N305.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Thanks for putting this on my radar ????
Still considering going DIY but it doesn’t hurt to wait and see what Ugreen will come up with. Price and software will be crucial factors… oh, and noise also.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Hmmmmmm ….. interesting Robie;
Synology’s low-end intel/ARM NAS market start at ~$500 (ex: DS423+).
However lots of great new brands/DIY NASes are coming-out aimed at the low-end market undercutting Synology big-time & it’ll only get worse too.
Synology better upgrade their low-end intel/ARM NASes to compete or lose-out-on alot of its low-end market share (or something like that).
??What does the Sea-Gull, Eddie, & yous thinks?? 😉
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Terramaster N100 refresh?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
No way do I trust China with my data.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Unraid is not a great solution when random reads require high bandwidth. If the data is not on the cache drive then the performance is unbearably slow.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Ugreen. The geniuses who launched 2 bays and 4 bays USB drive enclosures with a SATA II chipset in 2022…
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Get a PC case and build a nas in it. Those can hold up to 20 HDDs.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
really wish there were such cases to install whatever hardware into
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Hardware is perfect for me, and blows Synology out of the water. I would be very interested if I can put unraid or OMV on it. Ugreen has its own in-house OS, but it doesn’t support local accounts. A few months ago there was an incident that locked users out of their NAS because Ugreen server was down. They promised to add local account support, but not sure about the progress yet.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Nice clean looking bad and not in your face like asustor. Will keep an eye open as this could be a good choice.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I got quite a few Ugreen products. Mostly power supply’s and USBc cables. This company makes nice quality products.
With this kind of specs i would have upgrade my aging DS716+ already. So yes high chance i will go for this.
I own a couple of Topton N100 boxes in a Proxmox cluster and indeed they outperform the N5105 significantly.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Oh, could this be the company that Linus was talking about regarding an in-development NAS? Coincidentally, bought a dual NIC N100 mini-PC to use as a firewall yesterday ????
The N100 is literally everywhere now in devices. Apparently 32GB does work from various posts and products having 32GB.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Got DX4600 now, could be installed 3rd party soft, use as a mini truenas box. pretty solid quality
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
it will run proprietary software like Synology does?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
2 and 4 bay, i can’t buy it now, pointless. I need a 12 bay system 6 months ago. Asustor no 12 bay, QNAP too expensive, Synology drive lock in :(, terramaster not available in more than 5 bay here, can’t find any cases more than 8 bays hot swap that aren’t rack mountable. Even finding proper raid cards is getting elusive. Does anyone have a 12 bay 3.5 inch build, plus 2x 2.5inch boot drive in raid 1 for reliability a thing in Australia?. I don’t think that is asking a hell of a lot.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Not enough cpu power and not enough details yet. I like the completion from these type of vendors to put pressure on the larger brands.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Looks interesting, pricing will be important. I can’t help thinking though that any processor that doesn’t have AV1 native hardware encoding, such as the forthcoming Intel CPUs, is going to need to be quickly replaced. Once the new Intel CPUs comes out with native AV1 hardware encoding, earlier CPUs are going to look dated with mere h.264 and hevc hardware encoding support.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Sad really, that one can excited over an Intel N100 based device slated for next year. I’m sure its capable enough , have a mini PC of the sort, for its NAS functionality but that’s because the NAS market is saturated with old low end CPU’s to enable higher margins. Not sure I like the idea of having ‘promotional’ Unraid being fostered upon the public. If one doesn’t like/want Unraid can one just install OMV and the like or is one left with a doorstop unless one pony’s up for Unraid?
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
judging by the fact that it’s gonna have an hdmi port, maybe it’s not gonna be locked down to the whatever software it’s gonna be shipped with
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
If the 4 bay one is priced between 250-350€ it’s literally gonna be disruptive on the NAS market. Hopefully the RAM is manually upgradable and DDR5 too.
The case also looks so good! I’ve been trying to make one like that for my own attempt at a NAS but I just can’t 3d model
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
im liking those big numbers on the bays
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
A little bit scary honestly. Based on my experience of the reliability of their more complex hardware, I’m not really sure I’d want to trust them with my data redundancy ????
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
Synology will refresh their line up in 2024 with 2x 500Mbit ports and call it an upgrade.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I’m more curious about the 6800 and whether they stuck a better CPU in it instead of the N100 that can only use 16GB of memory.
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
I got the 423+ earlier this year and I am tempted to get this ass a play around NAS if the price is right as UGreen is pretty priced well with the other products. I keep refreshing the website hoping for more Info
REPLY ON YOUTUBE
These actually look interesting. I didn’t know they would even make NAS devices
