QNAP QM2-2P-384A - M.2 NVMe SSD expansion card, brown, grey

The QNAP QM2-2P-384A is an expansion card designed to increase the storage capacity and performance of compatible NAS systems. It occupies a single PCIe slot and adds two M.2 NVMe SSD bays. Using a PCIe Gen3 x8 interface, the card enables fast data transfer speeds, allowing users to integrate solid-state storage without replacing existing mechanical drives. NVMe SSDs are ideal for low-latency, data-intensive tasks, making this a practical solution for expanding a NAS system’s storage.

The card includes an active cooling fan to manage heat and prevent performance throttling during sustained use. It supports both 2280 and 22110 M.2 drive form factors and features integrated LEDs to indicate drive activity. Weighing 300 g with a depth of 170.5 mm, the unit fits into standard PCIe slots and features a brown and grey finish. Please note that storage drives are not included, and the card does not provide native RAID support.
