DS216+ and DS216+II RAM upgrade

RAM upgrade DS216+II to 16GB possible?

First thing, thank you for your website. It is really helpful.

I have a DS216+II with 1GB RAM and I’d like to upgrade it to 16GB. I read in your web that it is possible and I checked your list of Synology Models to RAM modules but just the 216+II is missing from the list. Could you tell me if the 16GB is really possible and which exact RAM module reference should I buy?
