What app are you using on your Mi box to see your network drives?
I got the same problem, I have a NAS server. With my Raspberry Pi I was using SMB and it was working well but with the MiBox + Kodi I had to use the NFS service. I don't know why tho.
I use sbm with vlc
I had the same issue, if you are on Windows 10 it default turns off smb 1, you will have to re enabled it as kodi does not support smb 3 (for me at least though have heard it will be a new feature)
There was a Windows update due to Wannacry security issues that disabled anonymous SMB1 Network file browsing.
In Kodi you now have to add a SMB Network Share manually and also supply a Username and Password:

That Username and Pwd also has to be setup on the SMB file sharing server.
Hello, please check your router settings. Maybe your WiFi network is isolated from LAN devices.
if the nas is linux, share over nfs and add "insecure" in the line from /etc/exports
smth like : /storage/ *(rw,insecure,all_squash,sync,no_subtree_check)
where /storage is what you share, and it will work on android too .
Try to manually add a SMB share under "LAN" in X-plore on your Mi Box. If that works, at least your know SMB share on PC is working. It may have something to do with which user is authorized to access that SMB share.
I use kodi and ftp server with FileZilla in my PC. You MUST add an exception in Windows firewall in order to see the ftp server in kodi.
