help Synology DS1522+ FAQ
Is the Synology DS1522+ really a 15-bay NAS?
The DS1522+ has five internal hot-swappable drive bays, not 15. It can reach 15 bays by attaching two optional Synology DX517 five-bay expansion units.
What processor and memory does the DS1522+ use?
It uses one AMD Ryzen R1600 processor with two cores and four threads, not two Intel Xeon processors. Synology ships it with 8 GB of ECC DDR4 memory, expandable to 32 GB.
Does the DS1522+ support 10 Gigabit Ethernet?
It includes four 1GbE network ports as standard. Users can add a single 10GbE port with Synology's optional E10G22-T1-Mini adapter.
Is the DS1522+ a good NAS for Plex hardware transcoding?
Its Ryzen R1600 lacks an integrated GPU, so it does not provide Intel Quick Sync hardware transcoding. It can serve Plex media directly, but a model with supported video hardware is a better fit when frequent real-time transcoding is required.
