Green Link NAS Private Cloud officially announced a major update to its UGOS Pro system for Q1 (first quarter), encompassing significant upgrades to the app ecosystem, data protection and management, media center, network and transmission management, language support, accessory compatibility, and numerous other optimizations. This update aims to further enhance user experience, strengthen system functionality, and cater to the personalized needs of a wider user base. The following is a detailed summary of the updates:

I. Expanded App Ecosystem: Richer App Selection

The UGOS Pro system Q1 update significantly enriches its app ecosystem. The app center has added several popular container applications, including Firefox browser, Lucky, qBittorrent download tool, Halo, Qinglong panel, and Siyuan Note. The inclusion of these apps greatly expands system functionality, meeting user needs in file management, downloading, note-taking, and more. Users can freely select and install suitable applications based on their needs, creating a personalized private cloud experience. This update not only increases the number of applications but also focuses on diversity, aiming to cover all aspects of daily user needs.

II. Data Protection and Management: Enhanced Data Security and Backup Capabilities

Data security and backup have always been key concerns for private cloud systems. This update introduces several improvements in data protection and management, significantly enhancing data security and backup convenience.

First, the system now supports backup and synchronization with Alibaba Cloud Disk and Google Drive. Users can easily back up important data from the NAS to the cloud, effectively preventing data loss. Second, the system supports backing up mobile phone albums via the WebDAV protocol, facilitating mobile photo backup and management, particularly convenient for Android users. Furthermore, the system supports per-folder backup (for Android systems), allowing users to selectively back up data from specific folders, improving backup efficiency.

To further enhance data security, the Btrfs file snapshot function has been officially launched. This feature allows users to create snapshots of the file system for recovery in case of data loss or corruption, effectively safeguarding data. Finally, to simplify the data import process, the system adds automatic copying upon USB/SD card insertion. Users simply insert the storage device into the NAS, and the system automatically recognizes and copies the data, simplifying the process.

III. Media Center Upgrade: Optimized Viewing Experience

The UGOS Pro system Q1 update includes several optimizations to the media center, aiming to provide users with a smoother and more convenient viewing experience.

First, the media center supports custom homepage carousel posters, allowing users to personalize the viewing interface according to their preferences. Second, even without NFO files (media file information files), the system can read local images as cover and background images, avoiding display problems caused by missing NFO files.

Regarding the player, the system supports online subtitle search and download, allowing users to easily find and download needed subtitle files, enhancing the viewing experience. Additionally, the edit metadata page now includes "Region," "Genre," and "Rating" information items, allowing users to manage and categorize media content more precisely. The system has further optimized the scraping model, improving scraping accuracy to ensure accurate media information. Finally, the system supports deleting playback history to protect user privacy, and supports automatic classification and automatic scanning to update the media library, ensuring the library is always up-to-date.

IV. Network and Transmission Management: Improved Network Connection Efficiency and Security

This update also brings a series of improvements to network and transmission, aiming to improve network connection efficiency and security.

The launch of Thunderbolt direct connection will significantly improve data transfer speeds and enhance multi-functional connectivity. This will greatly improve efficiency for users who need to transfer large amounts of data at high speeds. The portal settings now include an automatic redirection function and provide 80 and 443 port release options, optimizing network access convenience and security. The DDNS IPv4 now includes a "Disable" option, allowing users to flexibly control network connections based on their needs, meeting the requirements of different scenarios.

V. Language Support and Accessory Compatibility: Expanding System Applicability

To better serve global users, the system has also improved language support. Photo album image recognition supports minor language search, facilitating search and retrieval for users of more languages. App language selection now adds Japanese support, further expanding language coverage.

In terms of accessory compatibility, the system provides support for Green Link's new UPS, enhancing system stability and reliability.

VI. Other Optimizations and Upgrades: Enhanced User Experience

In addition to the major feature upgrades mentioned above, this update also includes a series of other optimizations and upgrades aimed at enhancing the user experience.

Support for resuming interrupted copy/move tasks prevents task failures due to network interruptions. Multiple selections are now supported for image import, improving the convenience of container creation and management. The virtual machine UI has been comprehensively optimized, the homepage management interface has been redesigned, and a guided tour has been added to help new users get started quickly. The system has optimized the new user guide/registration process, simplifying user operations and improving user-friendliness. Storage mode settings are also more user-friendly, simplifying user configuration operations. "About This Machine" now adds memory manufacturer identification display, allowing users to easily understand hardware information.

In summary, the Green Link NAS Private Cloud UGOS Pro system Q1 update brings numerous functional improvements and optimizations, covering app ecosystems, data management, media centers, network connections, and language support, providing users with a safer, more convenient, and more powerful private cloud experience.
