Choose the DS1517 if you want the cleaner long-term buy: it has a faster Intel CPU, supports more RAM, and is the one with native M.2 SSD slots for cache. It also retains 5 bays and can expand with a DX517, but unlike the DS1515+ it has no built-in 10GbE option. If you need 10GbE specifically, the DS1515+ is the more attractive choice.
