Use RAID 5 for the usual capacity balance
Four matched drives in RAID 5 use the equivalent capacity of one drive for parity and can tolerate one drive failure. Four 12TB drives therefore provide about 36TB before overhead.
Pay for 10GbE only when the rest of the network can use it
The built-in 10GbE port is valuable for large sequential transfers, editing and workstation backups, but the switch, client adapter, cabling, RAID and drives must all support the intended throughput.
M.2 slots can be cache or a separate fast pool
The two M.2 slots can improve frequently accessed workloads or hold a dedicated SSD pool for applications, containers, virtual machines and active projects.
DXP4800 Plus questions
Does the DXP4800 Plus include storage drives?
No. The standard NAS is diskless. Four SATA drives and optional M.2 SSDs are purchased separately.
What is the best RAID for four drives?
RAID 5 is the common balance of capacity and one-drive fault tolerance. RAID 6 trades another drive of capacity for two-drive fault tolerance, while RAID 10 favors mirrored performance.
How much storage do four 16TB drives provide in RAID 5?
The simple estimate is 48TB before system and file-system overhead because one drive equivalent is used for parity.
Does the DXP4800 Plus support virtual machines?
Yes. Its Intel x86 platform, expandable memory and M.2 support make it the strongest virtual-machine option among the four models covered here.
Can I use WD Red, IronWolf or Toshiba N300 drives?
These are common NAS-rated families, but verify the exact part number against UGREEN’s current compatibility list before purchasing.
