I think that I will leave everything as it is and accept that the transfer speed of 30-33 MB/s is the best that I can get with R7000.
TrustedReview measured the R7000's USB speed at 28-29 MB/sec, which is approximately what you are getting. http://www.trustedreviews.com/netgear-nighthawk-ac1900-802-11ac-router-review-setup-performance-page-2

What surprise me a lot nowadays is that for example I own a 17 y/o modem router from SMC networks with print server capabilities. Last century tech can still blow youngster and they can learn a trick or 2 !!
