You could connect a USB drive directly to the NAS and just mount that.
Have you tried

It's not something I do much. You would want to mount the OS partition and chroot if you haven't done that already.
It's possible that the USB drive would automatically mount. You can mount all unmounted drives with
# mount -a
There's a more general guide here: https://www.tutorialspoint.com/articles/how-to-mount-usb-drive-in-a-linux-system though of course you don't use sudo when you are logged in as root.
