If the NAS and the Alpha are both connected to the same Ethernet, you've 
got your connectivity.  Physical connectivity anyway!  You need some 
sort of software on the Alpha that can recognize and use the disk! 
Pathworks seems the most likely candidate but something else might do 
the job as well.

I have an NAS drive on my home network and my PC uses it without 
problems and my wife's PC could if she were so inclined. I've never 
tried with my Alpha. . . .
