Writes fall to zero bytes after a few seconds
Every time I try to copy a file to the NAS, it starts out fine and then the writes fall to 0 bytes and then eventually errors out... on the latest firmware. A reboot seems to fix the issue for a whil...

Is this 4.2.31? Or something else?
Do you have any add-ons installed on the NAS? Do you use ReadyDLNA?
Yes running a Plex Server & Unifi controller and that's about it... and just the normal services that come with the readynas. Running OS 6.10.1... running a defrag right now which will take a long time - the odd thing is it doesn't show any logs that the defrag is running... weird..
The write performance issues happened even before I put plex on it.
When you say a reboot resolves the issue temporarily, is that a reboot of NAS or computer?
Any chance you could pcap a failed file transfer? Ideally capturing the whole session setup, so close all windows explorer windows and delete all existing entries in 'net use', then start pcap -> open smb share -> start transfer -> once speed hits 0, wait 10 seconds (or until it errors out) and stop pcap. This should help narrowing down the issue.
If you want you can send the pcap to me in private as well.
I ran a scrub which took almost a week to complete and it seems a bit better... I'll report back if I can reproduce the issue which typically happens after the nas has been up for more than 30 days or so...
