LAN performance issues often stem from speed limitations within your local network.

Thank you for your feedback. I was on the go and couldn't respond right away. I'll address each update to your post one by one. LAG is something I plan to review, likely needing to connect both ETH0 and ETH1 links after the IP assignment. The NAS214 version doesn't display the graph like yours does, which is disappointing. If it can deliver at least 100MB/s write speed, it shouldn't be limited to USB 3.0.
I agree with your point. For testing drive speed, a direct measurement would be best. To check data transfer on the NAS without moving files elsewhere, you can use built-in tools or monitoring software provided by the system. Let me know if you need more details!
my laptop (Ubuntu server) runs with the following setup: ACER ASPIRE 5740 G model: external link. Intel Core i5-430M at 2.26 GHz and 4 GB DDR3 RAM (around 533 MHz). I suspect a CPU over 1 GHz won’t cause bottlenecks since network speeds are about 100MB/s. The issue seems to stop at the NAS214. I’ll upgrade to a laptop with a gigabit card for testing and will share results later. Thanks everyone.
You may direct output to /dev/null to eliminate storage or CPU/RAID parity constraints during testing.
