With the help of this GitHub - 007revad/Synology_HDD_db: Add your HDD, SSD and NVMe drives to your Synology's compatible drive database and a lot more I got past the restriction to buy overpriced synology HDD’s and SSD’s, thank you!
My DS1522+ now recognizes the crucial M.2’s and they can be selected in the storage manager to create pools.
Hope this helps someone out in the future.
