Synology DX5 delivers an effortless solution for volume expansion and data backup for 2009 Synology 
Disk Station. It not only helps users smoothly expand the Synology Disk Station DS509+ capacity to 10

When running out of the hard drive capacity on Synology Disk Station DS509+, users can expand more storage 
with Synology DX5. By attaching it to Synology Disk Station DS509+, the plug-n-use connectivity and eSATA 3.0 
Gb/sec definition allow users to expand volume from Synology Disk Station DS509+. 
Synology DX5 delivers a perfect backup solution for Synology 2009 Disk Station, too. By attaching it to Synology 
2009 Disk Station, the plug-n-use connectivity and eSATA 3.0 Gb/sec definition allows users to create an 
independent volume on the Synology Disk Station as a good backup target.
