FAQ
What storage capacity comes installed in the LinkStation 710D?
The LinkStation 710D ships with a single 2TB hard drive pre-installed and tested. This provides 2TB of usable storage capacity immediately upon setup, with no additional drives required for basic operation. The system supports one drive total, so this installed drive represents the full storage capacity of the unit.
What type of processor does this NAS system use?
This Buffalo LinkStation features a hexa-core processor, meaning it has six processing cores operating at 1.30 GHz. This multi-core architecture allows the NAS to handle multiple simultaneous tasks efficiently, such as file transfers while running backup jobs or serving multiple users concurrently.
What network connectivity options are available?
The LinkStation 710D includes one 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port, which provides up to 2.5 times the throughput of standard Gigabit Ethernet. This enhanced network capability significantly reduces transfer times for large files and improves performance when multiple users access the storage simultaneously.
What backup software is included with this NAS?
Buffalo includes NovaBACKUP software with the LinkStation 710D, providing a licensed backup solution for protecting data on connected computers. This software enables scheduled backups, versioning, and restoration capabilities, complementing the NAS's role as a centralized backup destination.
How many USB ports does this unit have and what types?
The LinkStation 710D features three USB ports total: two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and one USB 2.0 port. These ports allow for connecting external storage devices for additional backup targets, printers for network sharing, or other USB peripherals to extend the system's functionality.
What is the form factor and where can I place this NAS?
This NAS utilizes a desktop form factor, meaning it's designed to sit on flat surfaces like desks, shelves, or cabinets rather than being rack-mounted. This makes it suitable for office environments without rack infrastructure and allows flexible placement near network equipment or work areas.
