TerraMaster Expands Hybrid Storage Line With 8-Bay NVMe and SATA DAS

TerraMaster says its new D8 Hybrid 2 combines four M.2 NVMe SSD slots with four SATA HDD or SSD bays in one USB 3.2 Gen 2 enclosure. The company positions the unit for creators, backups, media libraries and NAS expansion, with support for up to 152 TB depending on the installed drives. It lists pricing at $299.99 in the United States and £299.99 in the UK. The company also says the enclosure can reach up to 1020 MB/s with a single NVMe SSD and up to 980 MB/s from a four-drive HDD array depending on RAID setup. For RamTrend, the significance is limited but real: products like this reinforce demand for hybrid storage architectures that pair flash for active workloads with larger-capacity media for archive use. That is more relevant to SSD attach rates and storage mix than to near-term memory pricing.
