Plex media server and client does pretty much everything except books and probably even has a plug in for those! But calibre companion is my tool of choice. I never got into using Kodi over LAN.

Technically, modern smartphones and tablets also use NAND flash/solid state technology. It's the implementation that varies. The controller/design used in mobile devices with constrained space and thermal allowances obviously won't be as fast as the implementation for SSDs designed for desktop/laptop use.
SD cards are super cheap compared to the premium Apple expects for storage upgrades. Granted, Apple's storage design is pretty fast (perhaps NVMe level?).
Mind, it seems to me Sirtel might be hitting wifi throughput limits and interference as they mentioned "a couple of Mb/s". As previously noted, Windows reports copy speeds in MB/s so that 1 MB/s is actually equivalent to 8 Mb/s. Given wifi throughput is highly variable and dependent on many factors (e.g. distance from router, obstructions, presence of other wifi networks, etc.), the file transfer speeds might actually be quite normal.
