Plex Cloud? Google Drive?

Plex Media Server
1

I’ve recently purchased the plex pass with the intent of keeping my movies within my google drive or something similar. Has this option been removed?

I’m just looking for something that I can host outside of my local computer that loves to fall asleep mid movie.

Thanks

Plex Cloud has been discontinued since almost 2 years.
You’re free to rent a root server and install Plex server for Linux onto it.

How about switching off or at least delaying the auto-sleep setting?
I run it on a regular Windows desktop computer, but with the hibernation disabled and all hard drives set to never spin down. It is always available.

I doubt you will have less issues with a remotely hosted machine. Particularly if you’re not a system administrator by profession or passion.

Good points @OttoKerner

I’ll have to look into the local option.

Thank you for helping me out!

@bobdempsey83 If your interested in Ubuntu (even in a VM) you might think about PGBlitz. It’s an automated setup of docker containers that use a google team drive for unlimited storage (but I think you have to get the actual Google Business account which costs $12 a month and it’s well worth it).
