MMS on an AMD powered synology NAS

Hi everyone, I'm looking at getting a NAS and would be happy to help beta MMS by implementing it on the NAS. After reading a few threads here, I'm unclear if MMS can run on the new Synology NAS or not. Specifically I'm looking at grabbing a DS1522+, which has an AMD Ryzen processor. Can MMS ...
