D2-320 supports up to 44TB (22TB x 2) storage space, meeting the speed and storage space requirements of professionals.

D2-320 key features:

10Gb/s speed
Adopt the USB3.2 Gen2 protocol, D2-320 provides a 10Gb/s data transmission bandwidth, with the actual RW speed up to 521MB/s when 2 HDDs are installed (WD Red 8TBx2 RAID-0 simultaneously read/write); with 2 SSDs installed, the read speed could reach 810MB/s (WD Red 1TB SSDx 2 RAID-0).

Compatible interface
D2-320 is equipped with a USB Type-C interface and USB typeC-type C cable (1m long), which is compatible with a variety of computer interfaces: USB 3.0/USB 3.1/USB 3.2/USB4/Thunderbolt 3/Thunderbolt 4.

Storage space
D2-320 supports 2x22TB large-capacity HDD, which can add more available storage space （up to 44TB ) for Windows, Mac and Linux computers.

Expansion of TNAS storage space

• Mode 1: Expand TNAS storage space in the form of a storage pool
  User can configure the D2-320 as a RAID configuration storage pool through the TNAS USB interface to expand the TNAS space in the form of an independent storage pool.
• Mode 2: Expand TNAS storage space as an external disk

User can treat each HDD in the D2-320 as an independent disk space, and expand the TNAS storage space in the form of a single independent disk space. For example, if user install 2 HDDs, will see 2 independent storage spaces.

Push-lock bracket design
D2-320 adopts the firm’s Push-lock design, when you insert the HDD, the bracket is automatically locked to prevent it from falling off or disconnecting. The screw-free HDD installation method takes less than 10s to install a HDD, providing convenience for users who need to frequently replace HDDs to exchange data.

Less noise

D2-320 adopts the company’s new structure. In addition to the additional shock absorption measures, the firm’s engineers also designed many special sound-absorbing panels in the new structure to minimize noise. The noise level is only 19dB(A) in standby mode, which is 50% lower than previous-gen of products.

The 320 series includes 3 models: D2-320 (2 bays), D4-320 (4 bays) and D6-320 (6 bays), which can meet the needs of home users, SOHO and small businesses for high-performance NAS.
