The 5200 and 5220's are old and no longer sold.
The datasheets for 5230 and 5330 will help with features and differences:

An Appliance is a discrete hardware device with integrated software.
The Appliance version number starting with 5, such as 5020, 5220,5330 etc. represent the hardware version.
Whereas the integrated software collectively including driver revisions, OS , patches of all software components is versioned as 2.x,3.x etc. (e.g 2.6.1, 2.7.1 etc), this version represents the software version or appliance firmware running on the specific hardware.
You cannot modify or patch the individual software separately, it has to be done via Appliance specific patch only.
Appliance can be categorized as:

NetBackup 5020 |
NetBackup 5030 |
NetBackup 5200 |
