How do you add a network attached MyBook as a 2nd target drive in Smartware?

I have attached a USB MyBook to my Netgear Gateway which has made it appear to all of my systems as a network attached drive. I have Smartware running my backups on all machines with a MyCloudMirror as their target. I would like to add the MyBook into the Smartware solution so how do I get Smartware to recognize the new network attached storage device?
