Two-bay desktop NAS for personal cloud

The Buffalo LinkStation 720 LS720D0802 is a two-bay desktop NAS that ships with 8 TB of storage across two 4 TB drives. A hexa-core 1.3 GHz processor and 2 GB of RAM drive the unit, while a native 2.5 GbE port and USB 3.2 Gen 1 connections provide wired and external expansion. RAID 0, 1 and JBOD modes let you choose between capacity, redundancy or a simple span.

Suits home backup and media streaming not

This NAS fits households and small offices that want centralised backup, media streaming and subscription-free remote access without managing a complex server OS. The closed firmware limits third-party apps, so developers or teams needing Docker containers, virtual machines or extensive plugin ecosystems should look at more open platforms.

Single 2.5 GbE port sets the network ceiling

One 2.5 GbE RJ-45 interface is the only built-in network link, so peak throughput tops out at 2.5 Gbps and there is no option for link aggregation or a faster uplink. Buyers whose workflows demand 10 GbE or multi-gig team collaboration will need a different appliance.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.5GbE port mean for real-world file-transfer speeds?

The single 2.5GbE RJ-45 port supports IEEE 802.3bz, so the NAS can negotiate 2.5Gbps with a compatible switch and client, removing the 1Gbps bottleneck for large sequential reads and writes.

Which USB standard do the two blue ports use, and what does it limit?

The two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports operate at 5Gbps, capping external-drive throughput to that signalling rate while still allowing USB 2.0 devices on the third port.

What drive sizes and mounting does the 2-bay chassis accept?

The enclosure has two SATA hot-swap bays sized for 3.5-inch hard drives; the unit ships with two 4TB drives installed.
