QNAP QM2-2S-220A - Dual M.2 SATA SSD expansion card, Gold

The QNAP QM2-2S-220A is an expansion card designed to add storage capacity and performance to compatible QNAP NAS systems. It provides additional slots for solid-state storage modules within your existing hardware. Designed for TS and TVS series devices, it facilitates the creation of secondary storage tiers. Using flash media improves responsiveness during data-intensive operations, and administrators can configure these drives as cache to reduce file access latency. The card provides a practical upgrade path for systems where the primary drive bays are already full.

Its distinctive gold finish makes the card easy to identify during maintenance. As the NAS operating system handles drive management, the unit does not require an onboard RAID controller. It relies on the NAS chassis’s passive airflow for cooling and supports specific module types for various storage configurations. The card occupies a single PCIe slot, leaving other expansion slots available for other peripherals. Installation involves securing the card to the motherboard using the included mounting hardware.

• PCIe 2.0 x2 host interface for connecting to the NAS unit.
• Two internal slots for adding storage drives to increase total system capacity.
• Compatible with 22110 and 2280 M.2 form factors.
• Low-profile design suitable for installation in compact or slim enclosures.
• Ships without pre-installed storage, allowing for custom capacity planning.
• SATA interface for compatibility with standard M.2 SATA solid-state drives.
