I dont run Apache but I goggled your question and found this answer:

If the NAS drive is permanently mounted on your computer, a symlink to
/Volumes/EDisk/wherever from ~/Sites should work fine, BUT the files in
question (and the path to them) must be world readable. Also, Apache must be
told to follow symlinks. You can do this easily with an .htaccess file,
"Options FollowSymLinks"

You can also use the Virtual directive in Apache to serve the pages
directly, without going through your Sites folder.
