If you want to move between two shares and don't want to worry about adding another virtual monitor then I would set up FTP daemons on both machines then using FXPing software (like FlashFXP, one of the few apps i've bought as its worth the money) to transfer between them. FXPing is like FTPing but between remote sites. What I think takes long on yours is that its transferring the files to your local machine and then onto the other share, taking twice as long. FTP makes the remote sites connect to each other so the data doesn't get routed locally. Your NAS probably already runs one.
