It differs from DS218j and DS218play in the presence of an eSATA port, another USB 3.0 port and 2 GB of RAM (against 512 MB and 1 GB, respectively).
A modification without the "+" sign in the name is possible, which is distinguished by the absence of one USB 3.0 port, a USB 2.0 port instead of eSATA, as well as a processor and type of RAM.
