You should be able to mount the NAS as an Unassigned Device to access files on it. To attach an external box with disks assigned as array devices you need SAS connections, typically you would have a LSI HBA like https://www.broadcom.com/products/storage/host-bus-adapters/sas-9300-8e in the Unraid motherboard with cables to a SAS disk enclosure, possibly with an expander.
