The DS1522+ is Synology’s newest addition to their performance-driven NAS portfolio designed for both home and business users, replacing the Synology DiskStation DS1520+ as its successor. Featuring a compact 5-bay build, the Synology DS1522+ is highlighted by its AMD Ryzen R1600 processor. The biggest change of all though is the addition of an expansion port on the back of the NAS to allow users to add a single-port 10GbE interface for greater network performance.
