Transfer to/from your PC could only benefit, if your PC had 2.5Gb(or higher) connection and it was linked to the NAS by a 2.5Gb switch or router.

For me it all depends on if it is commercial or consumer. I can not see a situation in any normal home where this sort of data transfer rate is even close to needed. Unless you are constantly moving Blu ray images or disk images then yes but the odd file no and even if you house had 40 people streaming 4K from a NAS based Plex server transcoding blu ray to even use 1gb of data transfer and then the NAS would not handle that anyway haha
