New NAS Models from Ugreen
UGreen has expanded its NASync DXP lineup by introducing two new NAS devices, namely, the NASync DXP4800 GT and the DXP2800 GT, in the global market. To recall, Ugreen already announced the GT lineup in its home country last month. The former is a 4-bay NAS, which joins the Intel-powered DXP4800 Plus and DXP4800 Pro models in the brand’s roster. However, we have already covered the DXP2800 GT separately, and you can read about it here.
AMD Ryzen Processor Choice
This time around, Ugreen has opted for an AMD Ryzen option for its NASync GT lineup. Speaking more precisely, the DXP4800 GT is powered by a 4-core, 8-thread AMD Ryzen Embedded R2514 processor, which is less powerful compared to the Pentium Gold 8505 and Core i3-1315U found in the Plus and Pro models.
Memory and Storage Details
Furthermore, Ugreen has paired the DXP4800 GT NAS with a single 8 GB DDR4 memory with ECC support. In any case, the DDR4 memory can be expanded up to 64 GB, but the global model only ships with 8 GB RAM. The new DXP4800 GT features a black-and-gold color design instead of the silver finish used on the previous models. Like its siblings, there are four bays for traditional 3.5-inch SATA drives plus two M.2 slots. However, the first and second bays can also accommodate U.2 SSDs.
Connectivity Options
In terms of connectivity, Ugreen now offers dual 10 GbE ports for the DXP4800 GT, replacing the 2.5 GbE + 10 GbE setup found in the last generation models. Nevertheless, it offers a variety of ports on the rear panel, including 2 x USB 2.0 ports, 1 x 10 Gbps USB-A, and HDMI. Up front, you get another 10 Gbps USB-A and 10 Gbps USB-C port, plus an SD card reader and status LEDs for the drives and Ethernet connections.
Pricing and Availability
The Ugreen NASync DXP4800 GT has an MSRP of $659.99. As a part of a launch offer, the company is offering a straight 20% discount via the “DXP4800GT” code, bringing its price down from $659.99 to $525.99 for a limited time. Interested buyers can purchase it from Ugreen’s official website and Amazon. For context, the GT model is slightly cheaper than the DXP4800 Plus and Pro models, which are currently available in the US for $619.99 and $679.99, respectively. We also have the review unit and are working on a full review. We are excited to see how the DXP4800 GT stands against its competitors.
