Yes, ReadyNas 628X runs Xpenology very well. Currently, running on my 628X. I used the 1825+ type via the Arc Loader beta 4.0.0.19B. I use the serial console port (UART) to manage the boot sequence. I did remove the USB DOM and use a Samsung FIT usb as it is a slim style. Once the unit has booted be sure to load ARC loader tools to manage the fan controls and remote access via the OS. I use the M.2 slot for my VM machines.
Good luck! It runs very smooth.
