Q: Slow file preview from external nas drive

I have just converted our office from a XP OS to Apple running El Cap and have installed a new netgear NAS drive to our ethernet network.

 

We are now experiencing very slow file preview speeds. Some larger directories are taking put to 15 secs to show the files. I have chosen to use the SMB drive as it seems marginally quicker but still very slow compared to XP.

 

I installed Parallels with xp to my Mac and the files appeared without delay.

 

Any help or suggestion would be gratefully received.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.1)
