The Synology DS1812+ is a 8-bay NAS designed for a small to medium size business use that features a dual core 2.13GHz processor, 1GB of RAM and Synology's DiskStation Manager (DSM) software. The entry-NAS market for even the SMB space typically starts at 4-bays, Synology has doubled the drive capacity on its DS1812+. Synology sells their NAS units without disks, so users purchasing the enclosure can add any combination of 2.5" or 3.5" drives they wish.

I wish it had a PCI-E x4 or x8 slot for either 10Gb or a quad 1Gb adapter.

I'm not sure this particular model could benefit from it though. Its not I/O constrained by two 1GbE ports in either small transfer sizes or large sequential. You'd need to step up to a larger model like the RackStation to get that.
