Google Drive was the one I used to store and sync all my work files. I relied on it so much that my workday would come to a standstill when the internet was down. On regular days, there were minor inconveniences that I ignored, like having to wait, just staring at the screen during uploads and downloads. So, when I first set up my NAS, I wanted it to feel faster in practice, not just in raw download speeds. After some trial and error and network tuning, I found a set of settings that made my NAS outperform Google Drive in everyday use.
