Defrag Program for NAS Drive

I downloaded Diskeeper 9.0 in hopes of defragging my Bufallo Linkstation. However, I loaded up the software on one of machines and it cannot find the drive. I can see the drive in explorer.

If someone knows of a way to see a NAS drive in Diskeeper I would greatly appreciate the help. Is there another software package that I could use.

Thanks.

For the dummies like me that didn't know what NAS is:

"A network-attached storage (NAS) device is a server that is dedicated to nothing more than file sharing. NAS does not provide any of the activities that a server in a server-centric system typically provides, such as e-mail, authentication or file management. NAS allows more hard disk storage space to be added to a network that already utilizes servers without shutting them down for maintenance and upgrades. With a NAS device, storage is not an integral part of the server. Instead, in this storage-centric design, the server still handles all of the processing of data but a NAS device delivers the data to the user. A NAS device does not need to be located within the server but can exist anywhere in a LAN and can be made up of multiple networked NAS devices."
