Comments.Text: Hello, and welcome to Stack Exchange! Could we have some more details please? How are you connected to your NAS (Ethernet?), what hard drives are installed in it (7200rpm?), what version of After Effects are you using (CC 2014?), etc. The more information we have, the more likely you are to get an answer.
