Thanks Gene and Bob, I didn't think of sshfs, although I have used it on
other occasions in the past. It works perfectly and I have disabled the
other file share options on the NAS. The performance feels even better
compared to SMB and NFS.
In the long term, I will setup my own Debian based home server, there
are many usefull suggestions in the other thread.
