How can u stand the noise the NAS makes in your room? I have the same unit, located in my basement and the constant accessing of the drives noise would be a no go in my listening room.....
Have you turned on quiet mode. This in fact helps. I am only in my room to listen and with music playing it is a non issue. Yet having said that when the new speakers show up im debating about returning the NAS to the downstairs main router,. It is in our guest room and the noise bothers my wife I typically turn off the NAS when guests are in the room. I do have another option and that's to change the satellite outside my sound room from a plug 'n play to a satellite similar to what I use in my sound room which has ethernet ports. Right now it's a non issue but ........
Noise depends a lot on room acoustics. I a reflective, bare room anything can be a noise problem. Considering your nice acoustic curtains and rug I can easily imagine it is not an issue.

I have mine in Quiet mode and I can hear the NAS but not nearly the level at which I hear it in the downstairs bedroom. It is audible but not distracting
