The Buffalo LinkStation 220 is a two-bay network-attached storage box that ships with two 4TB drives preinstalled, giving 8TB total that can run mirrored (RAID 1) for redundancy or combined for full capacity. It is a closed-system NAS: you get shared folders, scheduled backups of Windows and Mac computers, and remote access to your files without a subscription. It suits households and small offices that want simple centralized storage and backup, not a media server or app platform. Against rivals like Synology and QNAP two-bay units, it is simpler and more limited: no broad app ecosystem, and Mac support stops at macOS 15, with Buffalo pointing macOS 26 users to its LS700 series.

The Buffalo LinkStation 220 is a 2-bay network attached storage (NAS) device that comes with two 4TB hard drives installed, for 8TB of total capacity. It connects to your router and gives your devices shared network storage. It can be used as a home cloud or as a central place for backups.
It ships in RAID 1, which automatically mirrors data and leaves 4TB of usable capacity. It can be set to RAID 0 to use the full 8TB. The personal cloud has no subscription or monthly fees. Folders can have individual access restrictions, so files can be shared with family and friends while other data stays private.
The LinkStation uses a closed system to reduce vulnerabilities from third-party apps. It uses SSL encryption for secure file transfers. The NAS Navigator management utility and PC backup software are included, and you can set up automated backups of your computers.
