TerraMaster D8 Hybrid 2 review: DIY storage for SSD speed, HDD capacity

When you purchase through links in our articles, we may earn a small commission. This versatile storage box lets you combine SSD and HDD drives, though you're on your own for RAID software. This eight-bay (four M.2 NVMe and four 3.5-inch SATA) 10Gbps storage box from TerraMaster offers a ton of capacity and decent performance. There's no storage as speedy as NVMe, but the technology is still priced steeply. As such, you might want to augment it with more affordable hard drives by leveraging a dual-technology box such as the 10Gbps TerraMaster D8 Hybrid 2 reviewed here. That said, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that 10Gbps USB is far too slow to take full advantage of NVMe's speed.
