UGREEN is a Chinese consumer technology company founded in Shenzhen in 2012, known for charging gear, cables and computer accessories. It entered network attached storage in 2024 with the NASync series, which became the highest-funded NAS campaign on Kickstarter. Its UGOS Pro operating system uses Btrfs by default and offers Docker containers, virtual machines and local AI photo recognition on the Intel-based models, alongside HDMI output and SD card slots that most rival NAS omit.
