I would normally tell you to plug the iMac Pro directly into the QNAP, but I don’t think you have the 10Gbase-T card for the QNAP. Your switch is the variable. I always tell people to get the QXG-10G1T (89 bucks) for the TVS-873.

Hello, trying to resume here how to config the qnap:
– CREATE a Static Volume with all the drives (7200RPM), RAID 6, no hot spare
– CREATE one or more users
– CREATE TWO DIFFERENT NETWORKS – one for internet and a SECOND NETWORK WITH STATIC IP ADDRESSES AND MTU 9000 for your video editing shared storage network. if your WiFi or wired internet is 10.1.10.xxx, make your 10G network static at 192.168.2.xxx
– disable SMB signing on your Macs
– create one or more shared folder, that’s up to you. These are simply “shared folders” with QNAP. You can have multiple separate shared folders, and assigned permissions for R/W access to each folder, or you can just have one mount and trust your staff.
– mount the folder on the mac, using Qfinder Pro
– ssd cache is not useful, don’t waste your money
– Let’s edit!MAY I HAVE MISSED SOMETHING?
