It sounds like you're experiencing significant speed differences when connecting your QNAP TR-004 directly to your Mac Studio via USB compared to accessing it over a local 10GbE network attached to your QNAP TVS872XT. This discrepancy could be due to several factors, including the hardware capabilities of your Mac Studio versus your QNAP NAS. While your TVS872XT may provide better performance due to its robust hardware designed for NAS functions, your Mac Studio's USB connection might not be optimized for high-speed data transfer, especially with RAID configurations. Additionally, the TR-004's performance as a DAS (Direct Attached Storage) might vary depending on the host device's capabilities.
