I have a SERVER and a NAS device. I navigated to both of them via Explorer on my laptop. When I did a file drag it looks like the file used my laptop as a middle man to pass thru.

Is there a way to have my laptop not be in the middle so that the files take the direct transfer? It drops the moving a lot when they both sit on GBs connections.

Yes, use something like RDP to log into the windows server, setup something so you can access the NAS directly, and initiate the file copy/move from the server.

  • Indeed, short of a specialized solution (like FTP FXP), the only choice is to “become” one of the parties involved.
