How to use an SMB share on your NAS with Jellyfin on Windows

If you have your Jellyfin server set up on a Windows device, it is possible to mount your NAS's SMB share in such a way that Jellyfin sees it without needing to mess around with NFS

Quote: Most people are using small form factor (SFF) PCs or laptops to run Jellyfin on.

This post is specifically about windows as the Jellfyin host, but more generally is there any reason on non-windows installs (OMV's Debian, in my case, w/Jellyfin in a container) to prefer locally hosted media over media on a mounted NAS drive?

I'm looking to setup a server and have been a bit reluctant to go for a SFF of USFF/mini form factor out of fear I'll regret not having the media local.
