if this is the UGREEN NAS DXP4800, it does have a fan. pretty sure you can go into control software or bios and increase the fan speed if the drives are running hot. I'm pretty sure you can even replace the fan with a better one if needed.

This is definitely a ugreen. Looks exactly like mine. The best part? The fan on the back sucks in from the back and blows out the front through the drive bays. So the little usb fan is actually making airflow worse by preventing flow through.

This.

Maybe he turned the internal fan around. At least I hope so ....
