Jesus frick you dont say

But we also have constant downloads of movies and shows moving through that server since it only takes a few taps from a phone to put in a download. We have anywhere from 1-10 remote users using the server at once

but what do I know

In that case you are saving bandwidth because none of the downloads go through your connection and none of the other users' viewing will go through your connection.

But all that you view goes through your connection, whereas if you had the server at your house none of your viewing would go through your connection.


So yeah, in the end you're saving bandwidth by not running it at your house.


Even though I have an unlimited data connection (Cox Business class), I still prefer to run my Plex server from my home.
Short term power or internet outage? My home network infrastructure is all battery-backed, I still have hundreds of hours of viewing at my fingertips over WiFi
Long term power or internet outage/natural disaster scenario? Start up the generator, kick back and relax with hundreds of titles on demand.
