Well i am using a DXP6800 myself but have to agree i never used UGOS - mainly because i wanted to test out something new after having used a closed source nas system for quite a while (in my case QNAP). So i backed up the boot drive with clonezilla in case i want to go back and installed truenas instead. But to be honest - as soon as your zfs pools hold quite some TB of data it’s unlikely to switch back anyways i guess. So yes Truenas requires some “getting used to” and is probably less intuitive than UGOS, but in return you get a rock solid NAS (if you stick to production versions at least) and some rudimentary support for VMs and containers. When it comes to new versions i actually doubt UGOS also updates firmwares for BIOS or network cards - for UGREEN UGOS seems to be the firmware - but someone correct me if i am wrong. Cooling on the DXP6800 is out of the box bad - you will get pretty high temperatures as soon as the system gets some load. You will most likely have the fans running at 50% or more all the time to keep the System running at a reasonable temperature < 44 C. Finetuning can be done via e.g. coolercontrol. You may want to have a look at this thread.
