I’ll be vacationing for a month and want to setup a portable jellyfin server/stack. I’m not sure how good the internet will be, website says 300 mbps, but I won’t know until I’m there, so not sure remote playback is an option. I already have a n100 minipc I bought for a backup firewall, so I’d just need to buy RAM for it.

Here’s what I’m thinking would be the easiest setup for this:

  • travel router to vpn to internet
  • jellyfin server
  • nas os (will probably be truenas/omv, haven’t settled on that yet) using external hard drive (I have a 5tb hdd that’s just sitting around)

to get media on nas, docker containers on nas OS:

  • radarr
  • sonarr
  • sabnzbd

Is there an easier way to get media on the nas, or better options (or anything I’m overlooking) for any of it for those that have done a portable/offiline media server? Thanks in advance!

Edited for formatting

Edit: the consensus seems to be that this is overkill. I had a good reason at some point over just a laptop, but after sleeping on the feedback I don’t remember what it was.

      Are you aware of findroid? It’s an android app that also lets you download the series and watch it in offline mode like other streaming services. Maybe this is an option.

        Yes, I’ve used it in the past to download some stuff offline for airplanes, but I think that would be more cumbersome to download that way than automate it using sonarr/radarr, (unless this has gotten better in the past year or so). I’m expecting to have quite a bit of media on the nas since it’ll be for an entire month.

          You’re gonna be on an aeroplane for a month?

          e: tongue in cheek and all aren’t SD cards are a thing these days? You’ve got the obvious network solutions but if you’re off the grid?

          Why bother?
