I've been in the same situation, and as far as I understood bacula you
have to mark different disk locations as different Media Types:
something like this:

(part of) bacula-sd.conf:

Device {
  Name = NASStorage
  Media Type = File-Inc
  Archive Device = /bacula/Inc # evetually should be changed to /bacula/Inc
  LabelMedia = yes;                   # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
  Random Access = Yes;
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  RemovableMedia = no;
  AlwaysOpen = no;
}

Device {
  Name = NASFull
  Media Type = File-Full
  Archive Device = /bacula/Full # eventually should be changed to /bacula/Full
  LabelMedia = yes;                   # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
  Random Access = Yes;
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  RemovableMedia = no;
  AlwaysOpen = no;
}

Device {
  Name = NASDiff
  Media Type = File-Diff
  Archive Device = /bacula/Diff
  LabelMedia = yes;                   # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
  Random Access = Yes;
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  RemovableMedia = no;
  AlwaysOpen = no;
}

(part of)  bacula-dir.conf

Storage {
  Name = NAS
  Address = <removed>
  SDPort = 9103
  Password = <removed>
  Device = NASStorage
  Media Type = File-Inc
}

Storage {
  Name = NAS-Full
  Address = <removed>
  SDPort = 9103
  Password = <removed>
  Device = NASFull
  Media Type = File-Full
}

Storage {
  Name = NAS-Diff
  Address = <removed>
  SDPort = 9103
  Password = <removed>
  Device = NASDiff
  Media Type = File-Diff
}
