Answer

I wouldn’t really recommend the WD My Book for a Jellyfin server. It’s primarily intended as an external backup hard drive and isn’t specifically designed for 24/7 continuous operation. Even though Jellyfin doesn’t place a constant load on the hard drive, it’s still running continuously. For a server that’s switched on round the clock, I’d therefore opt for a hard drive that’s designed for continuous operation.
