Moving a Mac mini download setup toward NAS-based automation
The current setup uses a Mac mini to run , Jackett, and Mullvad, with bound to the VPN. Files are downloaded on the Mac mini first, then moved to a Synology DS920+ NAS where Emby uses a specific folder layout. Nothing automatically downloads new movies or TV shows, so searches still happen manually through Jackett.
The goal is to simplify the system by handling downloads and organization directly on the NAS with Sonarr, Radarr, and the wider . The NAS is running DSM 7.3.
