Our take on the BUFFALO LinkStation 220 8TB 2-Bay NAS Network Attached Storage with HDD Hard Drives Included

The Buffalo LinkStation 220 is a two-bay network-attached storage box that ships with two 4TB drives already installed, for 8TB total. It works as a shared folder for every device on your home network and as a personal cloud you can reach remotely. It is a basic, low-power NAS: it does file sharing, backup and media streaming, but it is not a fast or expandable enthusiast box. Against Synology and QNAP two-bay units it is simpler to set up and cheaper in feel, but it has a weaker app ecosystem and slower hardware. It suits households that want central storage and automatic backup without managing a server.

Questions and answers

Does it come with hard drives?
Yes. Both bays are populated, giving 8TB of raw capacity, or about 4TB usable if you mirror the drives in RAID 1.
Can I replace the drives with larger ones?
The drives sit in the two bays and can be swapped, but the unit's modest hardware limits how much speed you gain from faster disks.
Is it good for streaming video?
It can serve media files over the network, but it has no hardware transcoding, so high-bitrate formats may not play smoothly on weaker clients.
How does it compare with a Synology two-bay NAS?
The LinkStation is simpler and arrives ready to use, while Synology offers faster hardware, more apps and deeper management tools.
Can several computers back up to it?
Yes. Multiple Windows and Mac machines can schedule backups to shared folders on the device.
Does it need to stay on all the time?
It is designed for always-on use and draws little power, which suits scheduled overnight backups.
