Mac or PC? Where to install the Plex server?

In our household, we have lots of Apple devices (TV3 and soon TV4, iPhones, iPads, and Macs) and also some Window PCs still (where a lot of old movies and music resides). I have downloaded and installed the server on my iMac this morning but I wonder if, with this set-up, we will be able to play our stuff that's on the Window computers and external drives that can be accessed from them.

In future, we hope to use Plex on our Apple TV4 (Plex is said to bring out an app) and play movies, etc., on out TVs. I suspect for that the Plex Server is best on an Apple computer? And, I assume, anything we want to play on TVs or other devices needs to be on that Mac, or at least on external drives accessible from it?

Any suggestions or comments would be very welcome - this is our first use of Plex.

Thanks, Joseph
