    The plugins aren't filling your OS drive. What you do with the plugins might but most that would fill the drive can be changed. My dev VM has a lot of plugins installed and is only using 2.5GB. If you are using docker, you should change the path to a data drive.

    omv 7.0.4-2 sandworm | 64 bit | 6.5 proxmox kernel

    plugins :: omvextrasorg 7.0 | kvm 7.0.10 | compose 7.1.2 | k8s 7.0-6 | cputemp 7.0 | mergerfs 7.0.3

    Yeah if 16gigs isn't working for you, you have some sort of configuration issue. I've got quite a bit going on on my server as well, and I'm using just 2.2gigs.

    Are you using the Plex docker, or the Plex plugin?

    I use the plex plugin not plex on docker


    i have a 16GB usb drive but i want to use it only for the system but the plugin plex is using all the storage space
