Synology M2D20 NVMe SSD Card Coming Soon
The last month or so has been an absolute landslide of new release information for Synology, generally a frightfully tight-lipped company. From the announcement and release (in Japan at least) of the DS920+, DS720+, DS420+ and DS220+, to the impending arrival of the Synology E10M20-T1 and those Synology Brand SSDs, one particular hardware release almost passed by, the Synology M2D20 NVMe SSD Cache card, for upgrading your PCIe enabled NAS for vastly improved IOPs and file handling internally. This is not the first time that Synology has introduced this kind of technology to us, as its predecessor was the M2D18 – Near enough identical in a practical sense, but using a lower generation PCIe connection and up to 2280 m.2 length, this newer release cache card has tweaked a few things for the next-gen and is arriving with hardware architecture a little more inline with recent releases in Rackstation, Diskstation and even when compared against newer generation expansion cards. So, what exactly is the M2D20 Synology card, why is it important and should this be your next big NAS upgrade?
