You've already experienced it yourself. Once you find yourself in a situation that needs more than what is offered by the device you find yourself trapped. A dedicated NAS device, even a really basic one, wouldn't have the issues you have.
Also, there are small, quiet[er] NAS devices around. A bit of searching found me this: https://nascompares.com/top-5-silent-and-low-noise-nas-of-the-year/ https://nascompares.com/top-5-silent-and-low-noise-nas-of-th...

I actually used to own a Netgear ReadyNAS Duo and I got rid of it mostly because of how loud it was and Netgear stopped releasing updates, which meant that things like Timemachine backup stopped working. And it was super slow for transfer speeds compared to what the drives could do. For comparison sake, that Linksys router I have is super duper quick - it can actually do 100MB/s reads and writes on the connected drives which is very impressive(I thought) - this Samba issue is the only thing separating it from being great at it. And then I could install OpenWRT and then just install the newest version of Samba - it's just that I'm a bit lazy to do that.
