What Synology version are you running?

At this point, the easiest solution is probably to install LMS on the
RPI.  And then network mount to the Synology using a CIFS share.

On the Synology:
1) In File Services, enable SMB.  I think everything can stay default
2) In Shared Folder, find the Share that has your music on it.  Edit
it, and goto permissions.  Make sure your user account has read/write
access (Write is only needed for saving playlists)
3) You need to know the IP address of the NAS, and then the name of
the share as seen in the Shared Folder listing.

Then on pCP Web interface.
1) Dont install LMS yet.
2) Scroll down, and Install Additional Filesystem Support
3) Then in the Network Disk Mount, Enter fields
a) mount point, some simple generic name to mount the
music.......i.e.  Music
b) IP address of your NAS
c) Share name from your NAS Shared folder listing.
d) Share type CIFS
e) Username/Password, This is from your synology device of a user
that has permission to the Shared Volume on the NAS.
f) In options, put this.   vers=3.0,uid=1001,gid=50
g) Increase the Max Wait time to 300 or so (This needs to be long
enough for your NAS to startup from a power outage)
h) Save it.

Once the network is mounted....then you can go ahead and install LMS.  
Make sure you have expanded your file system plently large enough.  a
750gb music partition could easily use 5-10gb of space while optimizing
the database.
