Ugreen NASync DXP8800 Ultra review
The Ugreen NASync DXP8800 Ultra is the DXP8800 Plus with a newer Intel processor and a higher memory ceiling. It also costs much more.
Ugreen has recently introduced an upgraded version of its NASSync DXP8800 Ultra, following the successful launch of the NASSync DXP8800 Plus. The Ultra is essentially an upgraded version of the Plus, with no design changes to the exterior, chassis, drive bays, or port layout. Both models offer identical dimensions of 365 x 258 x 189mm.
Inside, the Ultra boasts the same eight SATA bays and two M.2 slots, and can accommodate up to 272TB of storage when filled with 32TB hard drives and 8TB SSDs. The model continues to feature dual 10GbE, two Thunderbolt 4 ports, an 8K HDMI output, and a PCIe slot. The main upgrades are an Intel Core 7 150U processor, which runs at a higher clock speed, and a memory ceiling increased from 64GB to 96GB.
For hardcore NAS users, the question remains whether the extra cost is justified. For those primarily using the NAS for file serving, it may not be worth the investment. However, for users who utilize virtualization or host AI applications, the Ultra could provide an improvement that justifies the higher price. The Ultra is currently available for $1,779.99, making it the most expensive model in the DXP range.
It has been on sale since September 2026, unlike the Plus, which required a Kickstarter campaign for its launch. The Ultra can be purchased directly from Ugreen or through online retailers like Amazon and Newegg.
