You don't do LAG for the single copy session - much more you do LAG to have more aggregated bandwidth available for many concurrent sessions.

How do I enable LACP on my ReadyNAS?
Can't find a specific document showing Netgear Switch <-> ReadyNAS, but the switch side is very similar for all anyway:
How do I set up an LACP LAG between a Smart Managed Plus switch and a QNAP NAS?
or
How do I set up an LACP LAG between a Smart Managed Plus switch and a Synology NAS?

LAG is the generic industry standard designation for Link Aggregation Groups ... aka. trunk, trunking, link bonding, ... FMI: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_aggregation
LACP is the Link Aggregation Control Protocol used in the 802.3ad standard (formally moved to IEEE 802.1ax) Link Aggregation Protocol. Most of the world does continue talking of 802.3ad and LACP. Both ends (the NAS and the switch for your subject configuration) must be configured the same way (NAS and switch). And each LAG must be a dedicated LAG.
This 802.3ad with LACP LAG is a dynamic protocol, while any other kind of LAG static trunks or static bonding or static - less common nowadays.
