Synology actually supports the old (non-encrypted) rsync protocol, too. On a trusted LAN, it runs much quicker that way than with rsync-over-ssh...
I just finished slurping all of my files off an old Synology and onto a TrueNAS server. Unlike the article here, my Syno is 2x1Gb in a LAG, so I was really only getting ~1Gbps at max.
One disappointment with TrueNAS is that it doesn't support SMB-MC unless you put each interface on a separate subnet (which is a strange limitation because Samba itself doesn't seem to suffer from this, since synology handles it fine)

What is the benefit of SMB-LC over managing the link speed at a lower level via link bonding or trunking?
Most methods of link aggregation won't speed up a single TCP connection, and they can be messy-to-impossible to set up on non-Linux machines.
With SMB you just plug in 2 NICs and you automatically get ~double the bandwidth.
