I prefer Jellyscale, as it makes sense to me to have "Service Via" naming style. Suppose he switches to Cloudflare tunneling? 'Jellyflare' would be a matching name, but the use case is still Jellyfin.
Just a quick word of advice. At work we have real time mirroring of our DASD. A year or two ago one of the newer people tried to do a copy of our production history file. It didn't work. As a matter of fact, they ended up corrupting both the production file, which immediately updated (corrupted) the mirrored remote production file. A week later, we finished rebuilding the production history file. Recreating it might be a better word to use. So, just remember, you still need a separate backup! An actual separate file of your mission critical file, with a unique name, EVEN WITH REAL TIME BACKUP! We got very lucky. We were able to rebuild the original file and verify it from four different files, The next day we had the separate backup file up and running. Nobody thought this might be necessary, because, hey! we've got offsite mirroring, in real time! The trick to data security is to look past your planned, installed super cool security system, and understand how it works, and what it's limitations are. If you fail to do so, expect to have a sinking feeling in your stomach some time in the future.

I own one of those cases. That case originally came with plastic mounts for three 2.5 inch drives. They mount to the right side of the motherboard tray, as you're looking at the front of the computer. I noticed that I did not see the fan mount rails at the top of the case, either. There is also supposed to be a third 3.5 inch drive mount. All four panels (top, bottom, and sides) are interchangeable, and the front panel buttons can be moved where ever you want them, so the case is really quite versatile. You can have the motherboard on the bottom, as you show here, or on either side, or hanging upside down from the top. You could even put the window on top if you like.

If you mount your home nas media on your parent house backup with rclone over tailscale, you can configure your parents house to cache the upstream for seeking, and offloading the active streaming to the nas at their house (maybe dont transcode lol)

Pi 4 + large external drive eats almost zero electricity and workd wonders.
My main home server is in a TT v21. It was my primary desktop case for nearly a decade. Including several years with a desk built around it, where I could see through the clear top down onto the components(poor mans l3pd3sk). I do wish it had more 3.5” bays, but otherwise you’re right about it being overkill.
I also do offsite backup, in a similar way, my old computer running truenas as bare metal, there was not a way to turn on/off the computer in bios, and wake om lan is sometimes, unreliable. So I buyed and monetary relay from ali express, get it into Home Assistant, and now the the computer starts 15min before the offsite backup will run, and turn off 6 hours later
Thanks for the video! I've been exploring NAS stuff, and this was very helpful.
By turning it on and walking away you essentially "put the cover on the case" after building it. ;-) Love tailscale! I have it setup on my home network and a second personal laptop I travel with when I travel for work so I can access my HomeLab from the hotel-- it just works!

This is a good video but I would also add some of the official Tailscale videos to your watchlist, Alex over there does an amazing job at explaining everything.
One thing that’s important to know when automated backups is malware can easily spread as a lot of modern ones lay dormant for months on end before activating and you wouldn’t know it’s on your back up or snapshots till it’s too late
I have so many questions on the approach.. But if you're backing up your data to that machine why not just run a Jellyfin instance on the machine at your parents place to serve from the local files?
Not tailscale but I use Zerotier to connect to work computers remotely. I have a bunch of computers off site that i administer and use that. Important turn the bios option power for always on, just in case there´s a power cut on the remote server side
I do have the same case and tbh it's actually pretty good with great airflow. It has 3 bays for 3.5" HDD in the basement and originally comes with 3 bays for 2.5" SSDs on the side. Also, it's completely tool-less so you can open or readjust anything, including the mounts for additional fans or water cooler block on the top side. Magnetic mashes for dust protection are also nice touch and you can keep your system dead quiet because of large fans with low RPM. My Ryzen build was almost silent with 100% CPU load (running BOINC 24/7). The large non used space inside is great for a huge CPU cooler that can run almost silent while keeping the system cold. The only issue I had with this case and NAS build is that airflow is not the best in the corner where HDDs are, so they were getting pretty toasty when rebuilding the array in Unraid or so.

Nice setup! I've been thinking about doing something similar. I've also had headaches with TrueNAS and Kubernetes apps. As you showed you only put tailscale on your main TrueNAS as an app, how did you choose to setup other services that operate with the NAS data (jellyfin, syncthing, etc.)? A separate VM (or multiple?) with NFS mounts?

The biggest I have with "junk/recycled" NAS builds is the _lack of proper ventilation_ for the hard drives. Premature heat death is not a great scenario for a NAS. Use the drive monitoring features of TrueNAS to check the drive temps BOTH at idle and during sustained I/O! I quickly discovered some drives in a build for a friend were running at 50degrees Celsius. TOO HOT. I strapped a 120mm fan to the side of the case (both side panels off now) and set the fan to "max" in the BIOS to get the temps under control (~30C).
haha i have that same case except mine holds 3 3.5" drives and 3 2.5" drives (mind you the 2.5 brackets are kinda poop, and they don't fit in super great due to wiring (i don't use them.), but i do like the fact the cases can be stacked and you can literally put whatever side on whatever side of the case..... so that's kinda interesting...
millage may vary but i do have Tailscale up and working on a fire cube, had a 1st gen firestick that it would not work on.

I've had issues getting Zerotier running on TrueNAS. Hoping they sort that out soon.
It's a good day when hardware haven uploads. It was a very cool solution you used with that jellyscale VM. How was the speed of tailscale when streaming from jellyfin (relative to your internet upload and your parents dl)?
Was going for this same concept but be warned that there is a 1MB/s transfer rate limit using the DERP protocol that Tailscale uses. You can use Tailscale on the same local network and get line rate transfers but why use Tailscale at that point.
You know TrueNas Scale is basically a Debian with some "very fancy" web gui (very simplified). You could try to run the Tailscale client on the bare metal Debian and see if that is less complicated to set up.
I love tailscale, also zerotier. Both are fantastic.

Is there a reason not to run the reverse proxy directly on truenas itself instead of a VM so you wouldn't need two instances of tailscale?
You successfully configured the remote system for disaster recovery, but you never actually tested that it works (!) I had a similar configuration and unfortunately, the configuration of my primary Trunas server had an issue, necessitating me to completely reconfigure Trunas from scratch, which was a royal PITA and took several days (luckily no critical data was lost). Accepting this disaster recovery architecture design failure, I ended up scrapping the entire thing and instead chose to implement Proxmox Virtual Environment on both local and remote systems bare metal, then installed Proxmox Backup Server as a container on both local and remote PVEs, configured the primary PVE to backup my Trunas VM to the local PBS, then replicate weekly to the off-site PBS instance. Not accepting relying on hope and prayers that it will work in a disaster, I tested restoring my Trunas VM both from the local PBS but also the remote PBS and both completed painlessly. Testing further, I took an old system I had locally, installed PVE, PBS in a local container, configured this test PBS to connect to the remote PBS instance, and again, painlessly restored Trunas VM lickety-split. Lastly, I purposely corrupted the Trunas VM on this "test" local second PVE, let it complete a sync to the remote PBS, and I was able to restore that Trunas VM from a pre-corrupted snapshot from the remote PBS, and yet again, it worked painlessly to restore the local test Trunas VM to a fully working pre-corrupted instance. At this point, I cannot recommend Trunas sync for disaster-recovery, but a true remote backup architecture such as Proxmox Backup Server is really the "right" approach.

If you limit your backups to a continuous 8 or 9 MBit/sec you will transfer 1 megabyte per second and have 6 Mbit/s left over for other daily activities. 1 megabyte per second is 86 gigabytes per day.

A lot of older ISPs are particularly bad about expanding upload capacity. And it has been like 2 decades when it was realized that upload bandwidth is becoming more important.
Front panel USB 3 ports should be solvable with an adapter I'm sure you could MAKE, USB 3.0 is a lot more forgiving than people realize. Front panel audio isn't worth connecting basically almost ever. 🤣
I prefer my VPN to be 100% under my control and not up to an account/subscription/vendor!
