Buffalo LinkStation 720 2-Bay 8TB NAS
The Buffalo LinkStation 720 is a desktop network-attached storage device with two drive bays populated by 4TB drives for 8TB total capacity. A hexa-core 1.3GHz processor and 2GB of memory handle file serving, media streaming and backup tasks. The unit connects to a router through a single 2.5GbE port and supports RAID 0, 1 and JBOD configurations. It operates on universal AC power with a 48W maximum draw.
Bundled drives and software
Two 4TB SATA hard drives are pre-installed so the NAS is ready for immediate use after connecting to the network. The package includes a NovaBackup licence for Windows PCs and Time Machine compatibility for macOS backups. Two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and one USB 2.0 port allow attachment of additional external storage or a printer. DLNA support enables direct streaming to compatible TVs and media players.
Home users wanting simple central storage
This NAS suits households and home offices that need an easy personal cloud for documents, photos and media without configuring a server. The 2.5GbE link provides faster transfers than standard Gigabit when the rest of the network supports it. Buyers who require more than two drive bays, 10GbE connectivity, ECC memory or virtualisation features should consider a higher-specification platform.

Questions sur cet article
When will the two 4 TB SATA drives inside the 2-bay chassis need to be replaced?
The included 4 TB drives are standard SATA units; plan to swap them after three to five years of continuous operation or when SMART data shows reallocated sectors.
What limits throughput first during long file transfers over the 2.5 GbE port?
The hexa-core 1.3 GHz CPU and 2 GB RAM set the sustained transfer ceiling before the 2.5 GbE link saturates.
How much heat and noise does the unit produce when running 24/7 at the 48 W maximum?
At up to 48 W the internal supply warms the chassis to the 40 °C operating limit; fan noise stays low but audible in a quiet room.
