DXP6800 Pro

Ugreen ugos doesn't see the pcie gpu apparently. But I'm going to install unraid off the bat. I just wanna see if anyone has done this. It's expensive. About $700 for the gpu/mod. If it doesn't work right I'd rather just get an a310 that everyone seems to do here and is happy with in the 6800 pro. P

I have built two homelab brew-your-own-NAS, one with Proxmox on bare metal (30TB RAIDZ6/18TB usable from passthrough OpenMediaVault VM) and one with TrueNAS Scale on bare metal (RAIDZ6 50TB usable in two pools) - the second while I was waiting for my DXP 6800 Pro. The UGreen DXP 6800 Pro (20TB RAID

Hey man, don’t worry – the guy who told you “your plan won’t work” is completely wrong in 2025. Your idea is actually perfect and exactly what 95 % of people do with a 4-bay NAS: - Start with 2 HDDs today (mirror or just single drives)- In 2027 add the next 2 drives whenever you need more space- The

I was pretty set on the DXP4800 Plus, but what nudged me to the DXP6800 Pro was actually the Thunderbolt 4 ports on the front. I don’t currently have a machine that can take advantage of that, but I’ll probably upgrade my main desktop in the next couple years. At that point, I’ll slap a fast NVMe dr

You're paying for the engineering that they put into the enclosures and the manufacturing cost for them. You're also paying for the development of the software that runs on them. But yeah there are plenty of people who build their own. Some paid software options exist and some free software options

The DXP6800 Pro can run Plex Media Server in a Docker container. A quick Google search said UGREEN does not install Docker on DH2300 due to the limited memory on the unit. Additional research (scrolling down) shows Docker can be installed manually. So, you can always give it a try and see what happe

Aoostar WTR Max, Ugreen DXP6800 Pro, Minisforum N5 Pro or Zimacube 2 could all probably fit your needs if you don't care that much about using Oculink/TB or using less PCIE lanes. If those are real deal breakers you will have to build one unfortunately going full DIY with server grade gear. Having a

Howdy! I'm actually in a good position to answer this. I have two DXP6800 Pros (one from the Kickstarter and one bought recently) and a DXP4800+. I have UnRAID and TrueNAS running on the 6800Pros and UGOS running on 4800+. There are more guides for setting up the *arr stack on UnRAID than UGOS. UnRA

In my life I've run plenty of systems at or near their thermal limits. My experience is that especially with modern thermal management actual catastrophic failures are incredibly rare. I'm generally of the opinion that the problem is overblown. The thing is that the problem isn't hitting the thermal

How many drives do you have? If it is for plex why not get a DXP4800 plus? Can run your own os, cpu will be plenty for sharing files and the quick sync will smash plex transcoding. It's small, quiet and efficient. An i9-9900T and 64GB ram just seems massively overkill, its going to produce unnecessa
