2-bay NAS systems
These NAS systems list 2 drive bays. Two bays typically suit a mirror layout, but bay count is not usable capacity and RAID is not a backup. Use the filters for listed Ethernet class. Check drive size, interface, and whether you need expansion later. The NAS drive checker compares listed form-factor and interface facts only.

How Many Drive Bays Do You Need in a NAS?
Choose NAS drive bays by starting with usable capacity—not raw disk capacity—and then allowing for RAID, filesystem overhead, free space, backups, and future growth. This guide compares 2-bay, 4-bay, 6-bay, and larger NAS systems.
Read guideHow Much NAS Storage Do I Need?
Calculate the NAS capacity you actually need by accounting for your files, growth, RAID or parity, filesystem overhead, snapshots, and free-space headroom. A worked example shows why raw drive capacity is not the same as usable storage.

RAID
RAID combines multiple drives to improve capacity, performance, or resilience through striping, mirroring, or parity. It is redundancy, not a backup.
Open termRAID 1
RAID 1 mirrors data across two drives, so one drive can fail without immediately making the data unavailable. It reduces usable capacity and is not a substitute for a backup.
Open termCMR
CMR (conventional magnetic recording) stores hard-drive tracks without the overlapping layout used by SMR. It can be a useful recording-technology label when comparing drives for write-heavy workloads.
