But if you dislike streaming-service clutter, want a fully self-hosted stack, or are uncomfortable with the direction of Plex’s commercial features, it is sensible to test Jellyfin or Emby alongside Plex before committing to a change.

Replacing an entire NAS is not always the most effective use of a Prime Day budget. If your current NAS still receives updates, provides enough drive bays and supports the applications you need, an accessory or component upgrade may deliver a larger improvement for less money.
What Are the UGREEN DXP6800 Ultra and DXP8800 Ultra?
The DXP6800 Ultra and DXP8800 Ultra are new high-end UGREEN NAS systems listed on UGREEN’s Chinese UGNas site and reported by several Chinese technology outlets. They sit above UGREEN’s more familiar DXP4800, DXP4800 Pro, DXP6800 and DXP8800 Plus-style models, with a much stronger emphasis on workstation-style connectivity. The key point is that UGREEN is combining a conventional multi-bay NAS layout with features normally associated with creator storage and small studio servers: dual 10GbE, Thunderbolt 4, HDMI 2.1, a high-speed card reader, PCIe expansion and laptop-class Intel Core processor
