Peer to Peer networking has no central "hub" to store the data to be downloaded. When a Client needs information, they connect to other clients on a network to download that information. An example of Peer-to-Peer networking is BitTorrent. Client-Server Networks use a central computer as a hub to store information. So when a client needs to access information, they need to access the Server for that data. An example of a Client-Server Network is any website.

File servers are used to centralize and manage files and data for a group of users within an organization or network. Users can access the files stored on the file server using a variety of methods, such as a shared folder, FTP, or a web-based interface. File servers can be configured with different levels of security and access control, depending on the needs of the organization. Additionally, file servers may also provide features such as file versioning and backup to help ensure the integrity and availability of the stored data.

What is one of the disadvantages of a server-based network compared to a peer-to-peer network?

With a peer to peer network, in order to access computers resources, all systems must be turned on and running. If one system goes down so does the entire connection. Where as with a server based network the connection will be up and running all the time regardless of how many computers are on. A server based network may prove more conventional for a larger network and may prove more reliable.
