AFAIK SMB multichannel isn't enabled on the NAS.

Thanks Stephen, thought I read that it was supported somewhere but am looking again and all I see is SMB3 support, but SMB Multichannel is "experimental" per Samba and not enabled on the NAS. This is same story as QNAP NAS. With QNAP, there are several good videos showing how to SSH into the NAS and change the Multichannel to "True". Do you know if that's possible on ReadyNAS? I've used Putty to SSH into the RN528X but don't know the syntax once I'm in there and don't want to mess anything up.
I did run Powershell's "get-smbserverconfiguration" command on my PC and "EnableMultiChannel" is True in the list, as are EnableSMB1Protocol and EnableSMB2Protocol. There's no entry for SMB3 in the list. I don't know run the equivalent command with Putty on the NAS.
