UGREEN NAS DXP4800 Plus Setup - I didn't expect this!

Video Description

UGREEN NAS DXP4800 Plus Review & Setup – Full Walkthrough, BIOS Access, HDMI Boot, UGOS, RAID and More! I’ve used Synology, TrueNAS, and other NAS systems for years, so when UGREEN sent over the NASync DXP4800 Plus, I didn’t expect much. However, UGREEN did reach out at the perfect time - with other NAS vendors introducing the requirement of certified drives; not a problem with UGREEN. This video walks through everything from unboxing and hardware setup, to accessing the BIOS and watching Debian boot over HDMI, through to UGOS setup, RAID configuration, and exploring the App Center. It’s not a full teardown, but I cover the hardware, NVMe options, upgrades, and software features in detail, all from the point of view of someone trying UGREEN’s NAS ecosystem for the first time. 🧩 Highlights: - Unboxing & first power-on via HDMI - BIOS access + watchdog disable - UGOS install, RAID setup & file services - App Center, Docker, and virtualisation - Snapshots, performance tuning & privacy UGREEN Official website: http://bit.ly/4pom9rF Amazon UK: https://bit.ly/4pofoGz Amazon US: http://bit.ly/4nyBaWn My affiliate link (may earn a small commission at no cost to you): https://amzn.to/48jJ69w Other UGREEN products: https://amzn.to/4nFdrEn Massive thanks to UGREEN for sponsoring this video by sending the DXP4800 Plus NAS for review.
