Ensure the target folder on your NAS or server has "Read/Write" permissions for the specific user account running SABnzbd. For Linux / Docker Hosts
Your Temporary Download Folder should always be on a fast, local SSD. Usenet downloads involve thousands of small "articles" being written and reassembled; doing this over a network will throttle your speed significantly.
If SABnzbd is running as a service, it likely uses the "Local System" account, which doesn't have network access. Open services.msc , find SABnzbd, and change the "Log On" user to an account with permissions on the NAS.
In Config > Folders , set "Permissions for completed downloads" to 777 . This ensures that even if SABnzbd creates the files, other apps (like Sonarr, Radarr, or Plex) can read and move them.
Use cifs or nfs to mount the network share into a local directory (e.g., /mnt/nas/downloads ).
