How to download directly to QNAP nas?

[ultra99]

I have set up sabnzbd, sonarr and radarr to download to my local hdd. I want them to download to my QNAP instead. From what I read, it's as simple as re-mapping the local folder to a server one. I also read about ContainerStation to install these services packages but I cannot get them to work.

Is there a simpler way to direct the download to my QNAP?

I cannot help you with anything QNAP, but I can only guide you with this:

What do you want:
1) let your PC download, and save the result on a QNAP network drive
2) let QNAP do all the downloading (so that your PC can be turned off)

If you don't get an answer here, you're probably better in a QNAP forum.

OK. Two remarks:
1) map a network drive drom your PC. I'm not sure if SAB wants letter-drives (Z:\) or UNC-name (\\myqnap\myshare ) . EDIT: Ah, only relevant if running SAB as a service on Windows: https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/advanced/sabnz ... ws-service
2) expect strange problems when your QNAP-drive is not accessible.

It might be better to let your QNAP do the downloading. Suggest using sherpa to install SABnzbd onto the NAS.
