Backup Device

I am trying to add a backup device to SQL that will use our NAS. When I ente
r
the UNC \\ProCom-SERVER\BACKUP\DISK.BAK for the file location I get a messag
e
that SQL Server can not verify the existenance of the backup file location.
The path \\PROCOM-SERVER\BACKUP exist and I use it for other backup files.
The SQL Server is a stand alone server and is not a member of a domain and
neither is the NAS, this is in a peer to peer workgroup network. I have
applied service pack 4 as well.
Any help will be appreciated.Does the account that SQL Server is running under have rights to that share
on the NAS?
