TS-251D upgrade to 2.5gbe

[Enquiries]

I have the QNAP TS-251D with the 1-gigabyte ethernet port. My PC has a 2.5 GbE port. I want to utilise 2 GbE between them. Can I just fit a "Plugable 2.5G USB C and USB to Ethernet Adapter," in to the USB port of the NAS and then connect the pc and the NAS through a QNAP QSW-1105-5T switch?
