The LinkStation 220 is Buffalo's two-bay desktop NAS, sold here with 12 TB of 3.5-inch drives preinstalled. It covers the basics well: gigabit Ethernet, two USB-A ports for external drives or a printer, and RAID 0, RAID 1 or JBOD setups through a browser interface. It suits home users and small offices that want shared storage and simple backups without configuring a full server. Against Synology and QNAP two-bay units it is easier to set up but far less capable: 256 MB of RAM and a modest CPU limit apps, virtualization and heavy multitasking, and it has no HDMI or eSATA.

Owners treat the LinkStation 220 as a dependable, no-fuss backup and file-share box. They like the quick setup and mirrored RAID, but call it slow for large transfers and limited next to app-rich NAS brands.
