You could see it as your personal super PVR. The sole intend of Sonarr is to download episodes of your favorite TV series, fully automatically. In this article I assume you have one, or both of these, already installed. If you decide to use Torrents (not recommended), then make sure to have a Torrent Download Manager installed on your QNAP, like for example Transmission. On a QNAP I can HIGHLY recommend NZBGet, but SABNZBD will work as well. Sonarr does not download your TV shows for you, it needs a download manager of some sorts for that. Sonarr needs a Download Manager/Client!!! The purpose of this article is to introduce you to Sonarr and show you how to install Sonarr on a QNAP NAS.

In this article I’ll show you why I like Sonarr better and how to install it on your QNAP NAS. I’ll admit, it took me a long time to give that one a try, and I have to say … I’m regretting having not done this earlier, it looks and works pretty slick. Don’t get me wrong though: SickBeard and SickRage are great! I just favor Sonarr a little bit more at this moment.

Over time another alternative appeared: Sonarr, also know as NZBDrone.

After that, I tried SickRage, which is a fork of SickBeard, but offers just a few of those nifty little additional features SickBeard was lacking, making it even better (and that’s just my opinion). I have played with SickBeard, which works very well. Tools like Sonarr have always fascinated me – it’s a good indicator that our way of watching TV has changed from fixed schedule to on demand, or: watch what we want, when we want.
