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!

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.
I agree to just fill up the HDD with media and bring that to play with VLC. Setting up the *arrs and usenet seems like a lot.
Like someone else suggested, maybe just bring a laptop and then you can manually torrent the few new episodes of whatever show you’re currently watching rather than dealing with the automation aspect.
