Compact two-bay NAS for small offices

The Buffalo LinkStation 720 delivers 16 TB of pre-installed storage in a desktop enclosure. A hexa-core 1.3 GHz processor and 2 GB of memory handle file serving, backup and media streaming for workgroups that need a simple private cloud without subscription fees.

Single 2.5 GbE link and USB expansion

One 2.5GBASE-T RJ-45 port connects the unit to a switch or router, while two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and one USB 2.0 port accept external drives or printers. The internal AC supply runs on 100–240 V at 48 W maximum, so the NAS plugs directly into standard office power.

Ships in RAID 1 with closed firmware

Drives arrive configured as a mirrored pair, giving 8 TB usable capacity and automatic redundancy. The closed operating system limits third-party attack surface and enforces SSL encryption on transfers. Direct Copy moves files between attached USB storage and the array without a host computer.

Questions about this item

Does the single 2.5GbE port become the throughput ceiling when the hexa-core 1.3GHz CPU and RAID 1 array are running flat out?

Yes, the one 2.5GbE link caps sustained network transfers at 2.5 Gbps even though the hexa-core 1.3GHz processor and SATA drives can feed data faster.

What are the operating temperature range and maximum power draw for 24/7 operation?

The unit is rated for 41°–104°F (5°–40°C) ambient temperature and draws up to 48W from its internal 100–240V AC supply.

Are drives included or must I supply my own SATA disks?

Two 8TB SATA drives are pre-installed, giving 16TB raw capacity configured as RAID 1 out of the box.
