UGREEN NASync DXP6800 Pro 6-Bay NAS | Intel Core i5-1235U, 8GB DDR5, 128GB Boot SSD, 6 SATA Bays, 2 M.2 NVMe Slots, Dual 10GbE, 8K HDMI

Centralised file storage for Nairobi studios, audit practices, and clinics that need every project archive reachable from one machine on the office network.


Condition: New




Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice



UGREEN NASync DXP6800 Pro is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 145,000, built around a 12th Gen Intel Core i5-1235U processor with 10 cores and 12 threads, 8GB of DDR5 4800MHz memory expandable to 64GB, a dedicated 128GB SSD reserved for the operating system, six hot-swap SATA bays taking 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch drives, and two M.2 2280 NVMe slots. Fully populated storage capacity reaches 208TB. The unit arrives brand new and sealed, stocked at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.

Kenyan video production houses, architecture practices, audit firms, and radiology clinics all hit the same wall: project files scattered across external drives, personal laptops, and expiring cloud plans billed in dollars every month. The NASync UGREEN NASync DXP6800 Pro replaces that scatter with one machine sitting on your office network, where every editor, drafter, or accountant pulls from the same folder tree. Photography professionals shooting weddings in Karen and events at the KICC can offload a full day of RAW capture straight to the UGREEN NASync DXP6800 Pro rather than juggling a drawer of SD cards.

Unlike traditional electronics retailers in Kenya who stock network storage boxes without anyone on the floor who can explain RAID, Mascom International walks you through drive selection and array setup before the UGREEN NASync DXP6800 Pro leaves the counter. Users consistently report that the twin 10GbE ports change how a small studio works: a 60GB project folder moves in roughly two minutes instead of half an hour on ordinary gigabit cabling. At Mascom International, we're seeing steady demand from Nairobi firms swapping monthly cloud subscriptions for hardware they own outright. Visit our Kimathi Street store to see the UGREEN NASync DXP6800 Pro running first.

Common Questions About the UGREEN NASync DXP6800 Pro

Does the DXP6800 Pro come with hard drives included?
No. The DXP6800 Pro ships diskless, so you choose and buy drives separately. This keeps the entry price at KSh 145,000 and lets you match capacity to actual need. UGREEN certifies drives from Western Digital, Seagate, and Toshiba, and NAS-rated models such as WD Red Plus or Seagate IronWolf are the sensible choice because they tolerate constant spinning. Mascom International stocks compatible 3.5-inch NAS drives and can populate the bays for you before delivery.

How much can six bays actually hold in practical terms?
Six SATA bays plus two M.2 NVMe slots reach 208TB in total using 32TB drives and 8TB NVMe sticks. In everyday terms, a 60TB usable array holds roughly 6,000 hours of 4K video at 100Mbps, or about 1.2 million 50MB RAW photographs, or every scanned document a mid-sized law firm generates over a decade. Most Kenyan buyers start with four 8TB drives in RAID 5, giving around 24TB usable with one drive of failure protection.

What happens to my files if one drive fails?
Nothing, provided you set up RAID 5, RAID 6, or RAID 10. RAID 5 survives one drive failure, RAID 6 survives two simultaneous failures, and the array keeps serving files while degraded. You pull the dead disk out of the front bay without powering down, slot in a replacement, and UGOS Pro rebuilds the data automatically. The DXP6800 Pro also supports JBOD, Basic, RAID 0, and RAID 1 for buyers with different priorities.

How fast are transfers over the dual 10GbE ports?
Each 10GbE port carries roughly 1,250MB per second in ideal conditions, and link aggregation across both ports can pool bandwidth to 20Gbps on a switch that supports it. Real speed depends on your drives: six spinning disks in RAID 5 typically saturate around 600 to 900MB per second. That still moves a 60GB video project in about two minutes. Your office switch and cabling must be 10GbE rated, otherwise the ports fall back to gigabit speeds.

Can the UGREEN NASync DXP6800 Pro run Plex, Docker, and virtual machines?
Yes. The Core i5-1235U includes Intel Iris Xe graphics with hardware transcoding, which handles several simultaneous Plex streams without the processor struggling. UGOS Pro ships Docker and a virtual machine manager as installable applications, so you can run Home Assistant, a database container, or a light Windows instance alongside file duties. Adding memory beyond the stock 8GB matters here. Buyers running more than three or four containers should budget for a 16GB or 32GB DDR5 module.

Is the DXP6800 Pro worth KSh 145,000 against cloud storage?
Compare it to recurring costs. A business paying roughly KSh 4,500 monthly for 5TB of cloud storage spends KSh 54,000 yearly and still owns nothing after five years. The DXP6800 Pro plus four 8TB drives pays for itself in about three years while giving you 24TB usable, local speed, and no monthly billing tied to the dollar exchange rate. Files also stay in your building, which matters for clinics and law firms handling client records.

Who should buy this rather than a smaller two-bay or four-bay unit?
Teams with more than six people touching the same files, or anyone whose archive already passes 15TB. Video production houses, architecture practices running large CAD and BIM files, radiology clinics storing imaging studies, and audit firms retaining seven years of client records all fit. If you store family photos and a film library at home, a two-bay unit costs far less. The six-bay layout earns its price when you need RAID 6 protection plus room to grow.

How does it cope with Kenya's power interruptions?
The DXP6800 Pro draws about 43W while drives are active and 25W in hibernation, so a modest line-interactive UPS keeps it running through a typical Kenya Power outage. UGOS Pro reads UPS status over USB and shuts the array down cleanly before the battery empties, which protects data mid-write. Mascom International stocks UPS units sized for this load and can specify one that gives you 20 to 30 minutes of runtime.

Can I add memory later, and how much?
Yes. The DXP6800 Pro ships with one 8GB DDR5 4800MHz SO-DIMM and officially supports expansion to 64GB across its slots. UGREEN publishes a tested module list, and matching the exact part number is worth the effort because unlisted sticks are not guaranteed stable. Memory becomes the limiting factor once you run virtual machines, several Docker containers, or heavy photo indexing. Mascom International can source and fit compatible DDR5 modules at the time of purchase.
