Can you try using dd to measure read/write throughput?
Also, you might look at the network path, and confirm that it is gigabit end-to-end. Maybe look at the ethernet stats, just to confirm there are no network errors. I also suggest looking at the NAS smart stats, to confirm that there are no issues with disk health.
Are you wedded to NFS? You might try using iSCSI for this, and see how the performance compares.
Are you using all the bays in the RN214? Another approach is to add an SSD (creating a second volume) - which would greatly speed up random access.
