What the M.2 slots do on the DXP2800

The DXP2800 takes 2 M.2 2280 NVMe SSDs. You can use them as an SSD cache in front of the hard drives, or create a separate all-NVMe storage pool for active files and apps.

For cache, endurance matters more than headline speed because the cache is written constantly. WD Red SN700 and Synology SNV3410 are built for this. For a pure capacity pool, a good DRAM-equipped consumer NVMe is fine.

Cache or storage pool?

Use NVMe as cache if

  • You want faster access to hot files without losing bay capacity
  • Your working set is larger than RAM but smaller than the SSD
  • You prioritise endurance: pick a NAS-rated NVMe

Use NVMe as a pool if

  • You want a fast, silent volume for apps, VMs or active projects
  • You can mirror two NVMe drives for redundancy
  • Capacity needs are modest (1 to 4TB)

Frequently asked questions

What NVMe does the DXP2800 take?

The DXP2800 uses M.2 2280 (80mm) NVMe PCIe SSDs in its 2 slots. SATA M.2 drives are not supported; the slot is NVMe only. Fit a 2280-length drive.

Do I need a NAS-rated NVMe for cache?

For a write cache that runs 24/7, a higher-endurance NAS NVMe such as WD Red SN700 or Synology SNV3410 lasts longer than a budget consumer drive. For a read-only cache or a light load, a mainstream DRAM NVMe is acceptable.

Is an NVMe cache or more RAM the better upgrade?

Add RAM first if you can: it is cheaper and helps metadata and many small operations. Add an NVMe cache when your active data set is larger than the RAM but you still want sub-millisecond access to it.
