QM2 series PCIe cards add support for M.2 SSDs to a QNAP NAS, allowing users to configure SSD caching, a caching pool, or an auto-tiering volume to improve overall NAS performance. Enhanced performance for demanding applications The QM2 expansion card allows for adding M.2 SSDs to increase the storage capacity of your Windows/Linux PC/workstation, while also boosting overall IOPS performance by offloading bandwidth-demanding tasks to the SSD to minimize application loading times. It is ideal for resource-demanding applications, such as inline video-editing, gaming and more. Tackle performance bottlenecks QM2 boosts performance by adding M.2 SSDs. It doesn’t occupy any 3.5-inch drive bays, allowing you to maximize both your storage capacity and performance.
