Head-to-head

UGREEN DXP4800 Plus vs QNAP TS-464: UGREEN includes 10GbE, the client and storage must keep up

The short answer

Choose DXP4800 Plus when the workstation already has a useful 10GbE path and you want that port built in. Choose TS-464 when its QTS workflow and supported expansion card options fit the plan. Both hold four SATA drives and two onboard NVMe drives. Network speed still depends on the client, cabling and storage.

Before you choose

Main trade-off

UGREEN NASync DXP4800 Plus

No general-purpose PCIe expansion is available.

About this comparison

Compare DXP4800 Plus and TS-464 for a ready 10GbE workstation, two wired networks, memory limits and PCIe expansion.

Choose DXP4800 Plus when the workstation already has a useful 10GbE path and you want that port built in. Choose TS-464 when its QTS workflow and supported expansion card options fit the plan. Both hold four SATA drives and two onboard NVMe drives. Network speed still depends on the client, cabling and storage.

Winner by situation

Start with what you need it to do

  • Use 10GbE without adding a NAS network card

    DXP4800 Plus includes the fast port.

  • Plan a supported 32 GB memory configuration

    UGREEN publishes 64 GB maximum. Neither QNAP document supports the required 32 GB. QNAP’s current exact 8G specification lists SODIMM since January 2024 and a 16GB maximum, while its January 2026 family manual still labels 8G memory non-expandable. The retained ASIN does not establish the supplied physical revision. Confirm that revision with the seller or QNAP before planning an upgrade. Neither document supports more than 16GB.

What matters in practice

The differences that matter

The first 10GbE connection requires different purchases

DXP4800 Plus already has a 10GbE socket. TS-464 requires a compatible card before making that connection.

How we reached this conclusion

This compares physical link capability, without predicting sustained file-copy throughput.

An upgrade changes the remaining expansion room

Adding 10GbE to TS-464 occupies its single PCIe slot. DXP4800 Plus has native 10GbE but no general-purpose card slot.

How we reached this conclusion

One slot minus one network card leaves no unused general-purpose slot on TS-464.

Four drives do not decide the memory workload

Both have four SATA and two M.2 positions, while the documented RAM ceilings differ. QNAP’s current exact 8G specification lists SODIMM since January 2024 and a 16GB maximum, while its January 2026 family manual still labels 8G memory non-expandable. The retained ASIN does not establish the supplied physical revision. Confirm that revision with the seller or QNAP before planning an upgrade. Neither document supports more than 16GB.

How we reached this conclusion

Equal storage positions do not imply equal installed-software requirements or capacity for concurrent workloads.

What you give up

Every choice has a cost

If you choose UGREEN NASync DXP4800 Plus

  • 10GbE needs an equally capable client and storage path.

If you choose QNAP TS-464-8G-US

  • The sole PCIe slot is occupied after a network-card upgrade.

Recommendation switch

The decision flips if...

I have a ready 10GbE workstation path

Choose UGREEN NASync DXP4800 Plus. UGREEN includes a native 10GbE interface.

A supported PCIe card is central to my plan

Choose QNAP TS-464-8G-US. QNAP has one expansion slot.

I need two separate PCIe add-in cards

Choose neither. Neither chassis has two general-purpose card slots.

What matters in practice

How to make the call

01

The first 10GbE connection requires different purchases

For a workstation with a 10GbE adapter and a suitable link, DXP4800 Plus removes the NAS-side card purchase. TS-464 can add a supported card, but it needs to be priced and checked before checkout. A single hard drive or slow source SSD may still limit the transfer regardless of the negotiated link speed.

02

An upgrade changes the remaining expansion room

Draw the complete adapter plan if another PCIe function is expected later. TS-464 gives a choice of compatible cards, with one physical slot to allocate. DXP4800 Plus supplies its faster Ethernet onboard, but does not offer an extra card slot afterward. Neither is an unlimited expansion platform.

03

Four drives do not decide the memory workload

For a small number of file shares, drive and backup choices may dominate. A heavier application plan can make the higher memory ceiling of DXP4800 Plus relevant, but first verify that the required software actually runs on the chosen platform. Avoid buying memory capacity as a substitute for checking app compatibility.

Check these before buying

  • List the required apps before selecting UGOS or QTS.
  • Verify the exact 8G package and the full 10GbE hardware basket.
  • QNAP’s current exact 8G specification lists SODIMM since January 2024 and a 16GB maximum, while its January 2026 family manual still labels 8G memory non-expandable. The retained ASIN does not establish the supplied physical revision. Confirm that revision with the seller or QNAP before planning an upgrade. Neither document supports more than 16GB.

What this comparison cannot tell you
