In 2025 years, the demand for data storage is growing at an unprecedented rate, and both home users and small businesses have higher and higher requirements for storage devices. Although the traditional network disk is simple and easy to use, problems such as speed limit and privacy leakage are always headaches. The emergence of NAS (Network Attached Storage) devices has provided users with a safer, more efficient, and more feature-rich private cloud storage solution, which has gradually become the first choice for more and more people.
From the aspects of storage capacity, membership price, functional experience, etc., I compare the advantages and disadvantages of Greenlink DXP4800 and mainstream network disks to help you choose the most suitable storage solution.
IN:
advantage
1. Cost-effective for long-term useNAS devices can be used for a long time with a long life cycle, high stability, and low follow-up maintenance costs.
2. Localized deployment, strong data security: The data is completely controlled by the user, which avoids the possible risk of privacy leakage of the network disk, and makes it more secure to use.
3. Rich functions and strong expansibility: NAS not only supports file storage, but also serves as a home media center, backup server, remote access tool, etc., to meet diverse needs.
Outnumbered
1. The initial input price is high, the input price of host + hard disk is not low.
2. The speed of external network access is limited by home bandwidth, the speed depends on the uplink bandwidth at home.
Mesh:
advantage
1. The short-term price is cost-effective, the price of one or two hundred a year is acceptable to everyone;
2. The external network speed transmission speed is fast,The network disk transmission speed is as fast as ever,Of course, under the premise of having members;
3. It is easier to obtain resources,Now Baidu network disk、Ali network disk resources are everywhere,Not to mention a few T,Dozens of T can also be filled in minutes。
Outnumbered
1. Poor data control, some videos are marked as violations and can no longer be seen, which has a lot to do with policies, and some resources say no;
2. The capacity is expensive,A few T are OK,No matter how big the price is, it's quite expensive,A lot of large network disks are the benefits of the initial stage;
3. Few functions, the network disk is almost only a basic function in terms of files, and the team can't use it;
4. Privacy and securityThe data is stored on a third-party server, which poses a risk of privacy leakage
The initial investment in NAS is high, and although the influx of new brands in recent years has lowered the price of equipment (such as about 1500 yuan for four-bay mid-to-high-end models), the cost of hard drives is still expensive. Taking the 0TB hard disk as an example, the price of the Cool Wolf hard disk for NAS is about 0 yuan, and the more cost-effective Galaxy hard disk is about 0 yuan. However, the advantage of NAS is that one device can be used by the whole family, which is more cost-effective in the long run.
Take the network disk membership as an example, if the price is calculated at the price of 2682 yuan / person per year, a family of three people uses it for three years, and a total of 0 yuan needs to be paid. That's almost enough to buy a NAS device. Moreover, if network disk members want to continue to enjoy the service without speed limit, they need to continue to invest in fees, which is undoubtedly a large expense. In contrast, NAS is more economical in long-term use.
To sum it up:
1. If you only need small-capacity storage, temporary backup, or watch low-quality movies online, a network disk is a good choice.
2. If you need large-capacity storage, long-term storage of data, and diversified functions (such as PT download, album management, video and audio playback, file organization, etc.), NAS is undoubtedly a better solution.
Take the UGOS Pro system of the green link as an example,The system of the green link has been redone and countless iterations to have the current appearance,Remember that the original version is the basic design of the network disk,Now it is more like a computer system,Each function is reflected in the form of icons,There is a special app store,There is also the player's favorite Docker。
The biggest advantage of the new power NAS is that there are dedicated applications on the whole platform, and in the mobile phone application, Greenlink NAS is crushing the existence of traditional brand NAS, with perfect functions and easy to use.
And the defects of the network disk are highlighted,The network disk is like file management in NAS,Basically only the relevant functions of file management,Translation、Compression、Conversion,All kinds of functions need members,The most fatal thing is that the rate of up and down is limited,Now there is no member of the network disk,You can only toss the next small file,Users who often use it,Recharge members is a must,And the application is full of prompts for you to recharge。
Mobile phone application,The network disk is far less refreshing than the green linkUGOS Pro,It also adds social attributes,In fact, everyone understands。
Ali network disk I will recharge members at a low price,The main reason is that many film and television applications support mounting Ali network disk,With rich resources,Light video and audio players can try to recharge Ali,Mounts to TV or hezi system film and television applications,I use Thunderbird TV support,But the resources are not always there,A lot of resources are gone,I have saved more than a dozen TB in the movies before,Look at only 5T。
File syncing is a core feature of the cloud and the best expression of productivity, allowing you to keep the same files across multiple devices.
GreenUGOS Pro has a very complete file synchronization function, which supports synchronization and backup:
1. Synchronization mode: The NAS and PC synchronize data in real time to ensure that the data on both ends is consistent.
2. Backup mode: Back up folders from your computer to the NAS, even if you delete files on your computer, the NAS will still retain the data and back up the entire NAS device.
Through synchronization and backup, you can accurately make some folders of the computer backup on multiple devices, the computer does not need to be taken everywhere, the company and home computer are always the latest version of the folder, I bought the original intention of NAS is because I often travel and can not be at home or in the company for a long time, with NAS you can open the latest files anytime and anywhere.
UGOS Pro also supports network disk synchronization to efficiently migrate data from network disk to local NAS for centralized management and localized storage.
Baidu.comIt also supports synchronization, but the synchronization strategy is not as convenient as NAS, and you can only select folders, and you can't accurately set the changes of data at both ends.
GreenUGOS Pro supports OnlyOffice online editing, which is an open-source file editing software that was previously deployed through Docker and can now be used directly by its own equipment.
Baidu.comIt supports editing with local software, which is equivalent to downloading and editing and then uploading and saving.
GreenUGOS Pro supports multi-user login, and finely manages the folder permissions of each user, such as the read and write permission for team folders, the movie and film content is only shared with the film and television account to read, the content that children can see is only read and written by the child account, and the children's photos that the elderly want to see are only given the read-only permission for the photos.
Baidu.comIn the new regulations, 10 terminals are supported to log in at the same time, but the account is one, so the internal settings and files are visible to each terminal, so it is equivalent to a function without decentralization, and it is really a personal private cloud disk.
GreenUGOS Pro has a full-featured photo album application, it can be said that many people buy NAS, in addition to syncing files to organize photos, it changes the way we organize photos.
1. Traditional photo arrangement,Save photos by setting different folder names,According to what we are easy to find,It's nothing more than the shooting time,Shooting scene or holidays, etc.,Once you neglect management several times,Follow-up photos are too lazy to organize,Especially photos taken by mobile phones,Don't even bother to send them to the computer。
2. NAS AI photo albumThrough the function of the device, the model can also be trained offline to identify the objects or people we want, and all our photos can be recognized by turning on the AI intelligent model function to identify faces, texts, scenes, objects, scenes, scenes, pets and sensitive content.
To put it simply, searching for the word "flower", the output of the green link is a picture with the word "flower", there is the word "flower" itself, and the photos taken on the road name of the word "flower", these are the only ones we can not recognize, I have taken forty or fifty thousand photos over the years, such a large number of pictures, there is always a part of negligent management, only by professional tools can find the picture you want.
I try multiple words,Nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adjectives can search for content,In addition to the picture contains text,There is also screen recognition,For example, "acceleration",You can search for waves、Chronograph、Car、Run、Road、Bicycle、Anime characters in racing suits and other content,Each picture can have something to do with "acceleration",I tried "too strong" again,What appears is to show muscles、Like、Sparkle and other content。
Recognition of face is the most important function, a group photo can basically identify everyone, we maintain this set of character names, play a key role in the search and sorting, and the function of the baby album is also based on this, as well as the recognition of things, animals and other functions, pets can also have their own pet photo collection.
Baidu.comThere is no professional album function, let alone the classification and sorting function of pictures, you can only select pictures in the category, and it will filter out picture files and display them uniformly, that's it.
GreenUGOS Pro supports the construction of local film and television libraries,This is another important function of playing NAS,Find resources remotely,Download resources,Integrate resources,It's all done on this machine,PT/BT players can use it,60*0 hours to boot and hang PT is more suitable,And a lot of Blu-ray original discs,Can only be downloaded through PT,Since then you will find,Not only 0T is not enough,0T may not be usable。
By the way, urge a wave of green linkUGOS Pro's own film and television wall,At present, the most down-to-earth in China,The most simple and easy-to-use means of building a film and television library,The recognition rate is extremely high,A large number of film and television content is easy to manage,NAS is the most worthwhile hardware device after TV。
On mobile phones, tablets, and TVs, you can synchronize viewing progress, content and other information.
On the TV side,Buy a player if you want to play deeply,Mount a NAS disk as a film and television library,Play directly on TV+NAS,Build with the green link's own film and television library,Video and audio players understand the gold content of NAS。
Baidu.comOnline playback is supported, but if you want to be ultra-clear and wait-free, you must have SVIP support, and the resource may be deleted due to policy reasons.
The audio-visual function occupies an absolute dominance, but it is really not comparable to the network disk, so let's just say it simply.
Greenlink DXP16 is equipped with Intel N0 chip, 0 cores and 0 threads, and a turbo frequency of up to 0.0GHz, which can easily cope with complex tasks such as data backup and high-definition video transcoding. Its 0-bay design supports a maximum capacity of 0 TB for a single disk, plus 0 M.0 solid-state interfaces (up to 0 TB for a single disk), for a total capacity of up to 0 TB, meeting the massive storage needs of home users and small businesses. In addition, the DXP0 comes standard with 0GB DDR0 memory, which can be expanded to 0GB, and supports multi-task parallel processing, such as running virtual machines or Docker container applications, with excellent performance.
The important reason why Greenlink DXP4800 is worth starting is that it is the main model of Greenlink now, and even in the next two or three years, it already has a very high cost performance from the hardware, and the performance is actually not much different from ordinary users.
DXP4800's exterior design can also be said to be faulty, the family-oriented color design, and its charging head and other accessories into a system, the corners have a chamfered design, and the whole chassis feels high-end.
DXP10 also has a wide range of interfaces, including front Type-C Gen0, USB0 Gen0 (0Gbps), SD0.0 card slots, and rear HDMI0.0, USB0.0, USB0.0, and dual 0.0G Ethernet ports. Dual 0.0G network ports support link aggregation, transmission speed up to 0Gbps, basically meet the current players, you may say that no 0G is not enough, see how much 0G global area network costs.
I have always chosen Seagate Cool Wolf, which has no other disadvantages except for the high price.
DXP0 supports two M.0 solid-state interfaces (single disk up to 0TB), I have always chosen Lexar ARES for this specification of hard disk, it supports up to 0MB/s, it is the flagship product of PCIe0.0 full speed, using DRAM low-power storage design scheme, equipped with HMB+SLC dynamic cache, using domestic Yangtze River storage particles, single-sided particles, the price is very close to the people, it is a bit luxurious for NAS, but now the price of the disk is low, and it is no problem to stock up on two for computers.
If you're a user who requires high data security, needs large storage capacity, and wants to use it for a long time, NAS is a worthwhile investment. Not only does it provide powerful storage capacity, but it also supports a wealth of features, making it suitable for families or small teams.
And if you just need temporary storage or frequent downloads of network resources, network disk may be a more economical option.
1. Suitable for NAS users:
Large-capacity storage is required, and long-term use is desired.
Data security is required and you want to have complete control over your data.
Diverse features such as home media center, album management, remote access, and more are required.
2. Suitable for users of network disk:
預算有限,只需要小容量存儲。
Need to download or share network resources frequently.
It does not have high requirements for data security and is mainly used for temporary storage.
With its powerful hardware configuration, rich functions and continuously updated UGOS Pro system, Greenlink DXP4800 has become an ideal choice for home users and small businesses. Whether it's data storage, audio-visual entertainment, or smart photo album management, the DXP0 can handle it with ease, making it a worthwhile NAS device.
