I suspect logmein works because it is using a 1500 byte MTU, even if jumbo frames are on.

Do you have any vpn clients installed or anything that would have added additional phantom network adapters to windows?
I think trying the direct connect is the most useful next step - jumbo frames is not the main goal, raising the performance on the slow PC->NAS writes is.
Also, it would still be useful to know the switch model, and what the NAS network stats actually are. The best thing is to copy/paste the statistics before a write test, and then do it again afterwards.
