PS: i also use google remote desktop if i ever need to use my pc from home. it can also mirror to friends tvs or i can use it when im away from home to basically control my pc on the phone, (check ups on torrents P2P programs etc) just thought you might wanna know about that if you ever need to use your pc on your phone for other things besides file browser APPS.

My applications are all installed on a Windows PC, and not on the NAS. So remote desktop is something I use quite a bit (even when home).
FWIW, I've found that in some places the services are blocked, so it is handy to have more than one way to do what I want. So I also have some similar tools for remote desktop - in particular, rdp (built into Windows Professional), and NoMachine. I used to use the free version of TeamViewer, but found that they periodically shut off the free version and want me to pay (and their subscription price is quite high).
Google Desktop (and TeamViewer) will run from anywhere w/o a VPN, I use the other tools only with the VPN.
