If your ReadyNAS system does not contain any files that are accessed by multiple 

users at once, such as a QuickBooks database, you can select Enable fast CIFS 
writes. It improves write performance with aggressive write-back caching over CIFS. 
Synchronized writes keep files that are accessed by multiple users at once in sync.

If you can always remove USB devices from the ReadyNAS system by properly 

unmounting them, select Enable fast USB disk writes. It speeds USB write access 
by allowing access to the USB device in asynchronous mode.
