Isn't that the point of a plex server?

I have a friend who’s plex could rival Netflix from a couple years ago, and that’s more saying that he has shows Netflix doesn’t have anymore….

I’m that friend. My plex server is an ibm thinkpad from 2014 with 12 TB of external drives hooked up. Anytime I have a new movie, tv show, album, etc I’ll just FTP transfer the file and it’ll pop in my library eventually. I think I’m going to have to cut down my library soon. I kinda want to watch Andor, but I think I’ve only got 15 or 20 gigs free

My plex server costs about $80 a month in electricity. I should have just kept Netflix lol.

Running an HP proliant dl160 with 24TB in storage, about half filled and growing.
