I am running a NAS that needs to connect to a server (the NAS isn’t powerful enough). I also need to connect my NAS to a Windows, Mac, and Linux device (Linux being the most important, then Mac, then Windows). Out of SMB, FTP, and NFS, which one would be the best, quickest, and most secure for my situation? My NAS supports multiple sharing protocols, but I don’t want to deal with mixed up permissions and conflicts later on.

SMB.
The windows nfs implementation sucks, but everything talks SMB.
It’s going to be SMB just because you want things to work, and user perms synced to the host. It’s the same Samba implementation anyway.
