Key features

  • Dual M.2 SATA SSD Integration: Install two M.2 2280 SATA SSDs into a single 2.5-inch SATA drive bay, maximizing storage density.
  • Hardware RAID Support: Offers RAID 0 for performance boost, RAID 1 for data redundancy, JBOD, and Individual modes without relying on software.
  • Driver-Free Installation: No additional software or drivers required, ensuring a hassle-free setup process.
  • Versatile Compatibility: Compatible with PCs, workstations (Windows and Linux), and QNAP NAS systems, providing flexible storage

The QNAP QDA-A2MAR is a versatile adapter that enables the installation of two M.2 2280 SATA SSDs into a single 2.5-inch SATA drive bay. This innovative solution allows users to enhance storage performance and capacity in PCs, workstations, and QNAP NAS systems without the need for additional software drivers.

  • Supported Drives: 2 x M.2 2280 SATA SSDs (B Key)
  • Host Interface: SATA 6Gbps
  • RAID Support: Hardware RAID 0, 1, JBOD, Individual
  • Dimensions (L x W x H): 100.5 × 69.9 × 9.5 mm
  • Weight: 0.1 kg
  • Compatibility: Windows 7, 8.1, 10, Windows Server 2012 R2, Ubuntu, QTS 4.4.1 (or later)

Enhanced Performance and Data Protection: By utilizing two M.2 SATA SSDs, the QDA-A2MAR supports various RAID configurations:

  • RAID 0: Combines both SSDs to increase performance and storage capacity, ideal for tasks requiring high-speed data access.
  • RAID 1: Mirrors data between the two SSDs, providing redundancy to protect against drive failure.
  • JBOD: Recognizes each SSD as an individual drive, allowing maximum storage utilization without redundancy.
  • Individual Mode: Access each SSD independently (requires SATA controller with port multiplier support).

Easy Installation and Broad Compatibility: The QDA-A2MAR fits into a standard 2.5-inch SATA drive bay and does not require any software drivers, facilitating quick and straightforward installation. It is compatible with:

  • PCs and Workstations: Enhance system performance or data protection by adding high-speed M.2 SSDs.
  • QNAP NAS Systems: Install one or more QDA-A2MAR adapters to maximize storage utilization, create SSD volumes for performance-demanding workflows, or configure SSD caching to boost IOPS performance.

Important Considerations:

  • Data Backup: All data will be cleared upon drive initialization or RAID mode switching. Ensure all important data is backed up before proceeding.
  • Identical Drives Recommended: For RAID 0/1 configurations, use SSDs with identical models and capacities to ensure optimal performance and storage utilization.
  • SATA Port Requirements: The SATA controller must support port multipliers to recognize two drives in Individual mode. Consult your system provider and install the latest drivers for your SATA controller.
  • Power Compatibility: Ensure that your computer's SATA ports or USB to SATA adapters/cables support 12V output (+12V_SATA), as the QDA-A2MAR requires this for proper operation.

The QNAP QDA-A2MAR Dual M.2 SATA SSD to 2.5-inch SATA Adapter is an excellent solution for users seeking to enhance their storage performance and capacity with flexible RAID configurations, broad compatibility, and easy installation.
