I've written files of this size (and occasionally larger) to my ReadyNAS, so it's not a limitation of the NAS itself. Of course the chances of dropping the network connection during the transfer do go up with the file size.
How are you copying the file? File Explorer?
How full is your data volume? Have you looked in the NAS log zip file for errors? (look in system.log, around the time that the transfer was made).
Are you using a single network interface in the NAS, or do you use link aggregation/bonding?
