10GbE NAS to Switch. Performance gain for devices connected Gigabit ports?

Question

Suppose I buy a Synology DS1621+ with a Synology E10G18-T1 (10GbE Network Interface Card), and I connect them to my with a Netgear GC728X switch’s 10GB Fiber Ports via a Netgear AXC7620: SFP+ Direct Attach cable. Will other 1 GB port devices (PC, Zappiti Media Player, etc.) connected to the Netgear GC728X switch’s 1GB Ports via CAT 6 or 7 cables experience any throughput performance gain when interfacing with the NAS?

Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the LAN Switch products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with Switch products and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this router forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:https://community.netgear.com/t5/Insight-Managed-Smart-Cloud/bd-p/en-business-insight-cloud-switches
