Instead of going to all the hassle of mapping drive letter(s), you can simply create a desktop shortcut (to \\hostname, where hostname is the network name of your Qnap see below screen shot of where this is set via the Qnap web interface) when then - when double clicked - opens a window showing all of these available shares on your Qnap. So to get files onto the NAS shares, you can map drive letters each of the shares that you wish to use, but that isn't the only method you don't have to map a drive letter (or letters) to access it that is just one convenient way to access it.
