Transferring files from phone

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 running Android 4.4.2 Kitkat. I noticed that my ReadyNAS Ultra 6 has regular USB ports on the back. I connected my phone to one, and my phone is getting charged from it, but I'm wondering if there's anyway to transfer files back and forth this way? I can and have been doing it wirelessly, but I'd think a direct connection would be faster. My phone IS rooted if that helps.

It should appear as a USB device, if you set the proper USB connection mode on the phone. Though I haven't tried it - I just hook it up to my PC.
