Ah... if your database is large then Shield is going to exhaust the internal storage. Hence my advice up above how Shield is great for small/medium collections, but does not work for large collections.
Thousands of items = fine on Shield
Tens of thousands of items = not so fine on Shield
Hundreds of thousands = definitely will not work on Shield
But as a pathway to a larger system, Shield as Plex Server is fine... and then in the future if you're all-in and have a large collection, you can create a new server elsewhere and repoint your clients and nuke the Shield server.
