Stay well all.

I second the sshfs approach. I use it between several Debian servers and have
been happy with the results. Once setup in the fstab a click in a GUI or mount
command on the cli mounts the remote server on a directory specified in the fstab.
A sample of a line in the fstab (check docs for more options):
sshfs#r...@172.16.0.xxx:/ /mnt/deb-test fuse user,noauto,rw 0 0
The user at the remote system is root in this example. Not a good idea unless
you are the only one who can login to your system. I use ssh keys always. If
they are created without a password sshfs won't ask for one when it is mounted
(I need this for my backup system Backuppc). I even use sshfs to access a
Digital Ocean droplet I have over the internet.
The current NAS you have might work with sshfs if their ssh server supports
SFTP.
