Here are some case types that work very well for this kind of mobile editing environment.
Nanuk and HPRC rugged cases are the most popular for film crews because they are waterproof, dustproof and built to handle rough travel. Models like the Nanuk 950, 955 or 960 or the HPRC 2800W have strong shells, wheels for easier transport, and you can add custom or pick and pluck foam to keep your NAS and Studio firmly locked in place during bumps and vibration.
Another option is the MAX or RoseCase ProSecure lines. These are slightly more affordable but still highly protective. They allow you to choose padded dividers or dense foam interior layouts that will keep everything cushioned without blocking ventilation.
If the budget is tight you can build your own solution. Many people use a standard rugged tool case or storage box and then line it with high density camera foam. You simply shape the foam to fit the NAS, battery and Studio so they sit firmly without movement. Then you can add small ventilation holes along the top or side and place a quiet USB fan inside to keep airflow moving. As long as the case is kept shaded and not fully sealed, heat will not accumulate.
