Learn the difference between gigabit and gigabyte.

There are 8 bits in every byte. A gigabit per second is a theoretical max of 125 megaBYTES per second.

With standard network overhead a transfer should top out at around 112 megaBYTES per second.

Check out the tool iPerf, which can be useful in testing throughput across your network. As you've seen already, a gigabit network transferring at or above 110MB/s is likely working properly and isn't a bottleneck.

You might do some benchmark tests on your pc and your nas, to make sure you're not limited by hard drives.
