You can do this in several ways. The most reliable and correct way would be 
to create a new storage driver for Mayan that support CIFS.

On the other hand, the easiest way would be to mount the external folder as 
Mayan's /media folder by modifying the file /etc/fstab so that it is 
mounted on every boot.

To use an external Postgres database refer to Django's instructions 
here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/ref/settings/#databases
In short you need to add something like this to your Mayan's 
settings/local.py file:

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql',
        'NAME': 'mydatabase',
        'USER': 'mydatabaseuser',
        'PASSWORD': 'mypassword',
        'HOST': '127.0.0.1',
        'PORT': '5432',
    }}
