Out of curiosity, do yoy know how Jellyfin handles network failures with mounted network drives?
I had a navidrome server where once my network machine failed to start properly, the entire database was deleted because it looked to the server like I deleted all of my files. I luckily had my favorites cached on my phone client and was able to restore most of my playlists from there but it was still an incredibly annoying thing to go through. I have since turned off automatic scanning of files for that service since that seemed like the only way to prevent this happening again
Just like navidrome it seems like Jellyfin reacts to failed mounts by emptying libraries.

With version 10.11.0 they offer a built in backup system for db/metadata/subtitles though so once access is restored it's easy to restore any metadata changes you've done to your library. (As long as you got a backup since before that is)
