So I recently set up a home media server and was planning on setting up remote access using Tailscale which doesn’t work very well with VPN’s from what I have read.

I don’t want to download things exposing my IP address so was thinking about picking up a Raspberry PI and running Radarr & Sonarr, then setting the PI to auto transfer to my server every 24 hours with any new files.

I’ve never used a Raspberry Pi before so wasn’t sure if the Zero would be powerful enough to do this. It’d literally just be used to connect to a VPN, Download and transfer files on my network.

Would the Pi Zero be suitable or is there a better Pi for this use case?

    raspi 4 2gb here. Works just fine. Don’t know what people are talking about being slow etc. Look into dietpi. I’m running radarr, sonarr, nzbget, qbitorrent, kodi and mullvad vpn. No issues here whatsoever.
