Sorry if this has been asked before, I couldn't find much on google.
If it at-all feasible to have all my media stored in an external storage, for example backblaze or a NAS, which is made available to Jellyfin through something like rclone. I currently have a dedicated server with gigabit up and down and an i7-7700 (which google tells me is good enough to transcode), but it doesn't have much storage. It's significantly cheaper for me to either use storage from a cloud provider, or setup a link to my own existing storage box, than put more drives in that server.
Would a setup like this have any major performance impacts? I did see rffmpeg, however that doesn't work great if I want my jellyfin to be hosted at the same place as the transcoding, but the storage elsewhere.
