Whether you'd be better off is up to you to decide as that involves
many factors.  But from a pure speed standpoint there's no doubt that a
dedicated PC will be much faster than a NAS.  You'll be fine leaving you
music on the NAS; the slowdown is not due to the hard disk but rather
the CPU and memory.  You might be able to optimize your setup by
reducing the # of plugins that you load, but you're still never going
to approach the performance of a PC.
