I connected my NAS directly to my PC with 10 gigabit Ethernet, and skipped upgrading the rest of my network

A direct 10GbE Ethernet connection between a PC and a NAS bypasses the need for an expensive network switch. The setup cost $80 for a TX401 NIC and Cat 6 cables, versus $190 for a Zyxel switch. The NAS becomes inaccessible to other LAN devices, but works for single-rig file transfers.
