>Hi,
>
>A prospective customer is asking if he can store my VFP 9 application on NAS (Windows Storage Server 2012). I just read about this NAS online which seems to me should work. But my question is, if anybody used NAS, how do local PCs "see" this NAS? As a server drive?

Yes.

>For example, does NAS have C: drive where I can create a folder (e.g. MyApp) and copy application files to it? Will then local PCs have access to this folder as e.g. \\NasServerName\MyApp?

Yes, assuming your folder MyApp has been shared with a share name "MyApp" and permissions have been set appropriately.
