 * Good Afternoon,
 * I have 2 totally different servers. i have one server that my website is on and
   another server that i host my media. Is there any way to modify this plugin so
   that it points to a directory on another url completely?

 * Short answer: No.
 * Longer answer: If you have your uploads directory set as a NFS share that’s hosted
   by the other server, then WordPress can natively handle having the media on another
   server, and Add From Server will just work.
