General InformationElevate Your Storage Performance To the Next Level Designed to supercharge your NAS I/O performance, Synology M.2 SSD adapter M2D18 significantly reduces random I/O latency, benefiting applications such as photo indexing, file search, and virtualization environments. The dual M.2 SSD slots support both SATA and NVMe SSD, meaning higher SSD read/write caching and more primary drive bays reserved for data storage. Attachable heatsink accelerates thermal dispatching of M.2 SSD and assures system stability with excellent performance. Its flexibility in supporting 2280/2260/2242 form factors and meeting various SSD options saves you from vendor lock-in.MiscellaneousAdditional Information: PCIe Interface: PCIe 2.0 x8 Driver Interface: PCIe NVMe / SATA Connector Type and Quantity: M-key, 2 Slots Supported Form Factor: 2280 / 2260 / 2242 Bracket Height: Low Profile and Full Height Operating Temperature: 0C to 40C (32F to 104F) Storage Temperature: -20C to 60C (-5F to 140F) Relative Humidity: 5% to 95% RH Compatibility: Synology Storage Enclosures: FS1018 DS3018xs RS2818RP+ RS2418(RP)+ DS1618+ FS2017 RS18017xs+ RS4017xs+ RS3617xs+ RS3617RPxs RS3618xs DS3617xs RS1219+ RS818(RP)+ DS1817+ DS1517+
