Synolgy nas (storage)+ Shield TV pro (transcoding) + outside from home network = possible?

Hello,
This might be a stupid question, but is it possible to access the Plex media server on Shield TV pro from an outside network using a Synology NAS DS212+ for storage?
I was wondering if I can use Plex while traveling, but I do not want to use DS212+ for transcoding since it is not powerful enough so I am adding the Shield just for transcoding.
I am planning to put the Shield next to DS212+ which is in the closet so transcoding is all it does.
Thank you for your help!

What you’re wanting to do works.

  1. Keep the Syno as purely the NAS.
  2. Run everything on the Shield Pro
  3. Make sure you have a battery backup to handle power outages.
