It can be fussy on memory timing. Here's a link to memory that some folks on Amazon said worked: https://www.amazon.com/Memory-NETGEAR-ReadyNAS-RND4000-PC3200/dp/B009BSGWY0

Is the unit faster with 1 Gb compared to 256 Mb ?
Based on posts here, it is a bit faster as a file server with 1 GB, but the speed increase isn't huge. My own NV+ has the stock 256 KB RAM.

Again, you are using an 11-year old NAS design. Netgear stopped manufacturing this model in 2011. Any new NAS will give you much better performance. The RN210 series is the current Netgear entry-level NAS, and it is capable of 100 MB/s throughput.
Thanks for the NAStester benchmark. It shows that either something is off with the NAS itself, or something is wrong with your network.
Can you give us some information on the network path between the NAS and the PC? Please let us know if it includes powerline or wifi links, and also the speed of each ethernet link.
Also download the log zip file from the admin web UI, and look at the disk health in disk_smart.log and the network statistics in network_settings.log
