Seeding files slows the HDD down right? By how much? I know servers are in RAID arrays to get maximum performance so I am thinking I would best be with a RAID array if I'm going to be seeding a lot. If I'm seeding "Torrent A" on 5 different trackers, it should use less HDD resources than if I seeded 5 different torrents on 5 different trackers, or is it the same since it is amount of bandwidth being used?
well i cant recognize any slowness on my HDDs half, only my internet is slowing.. well maybe having a core2duo helps :P
if your connection is so slow, that is the bottleneck and improving your HDD power wont help it.
Sundays is slowest time, for all computers....
five different torrents use more hd space than one torrent, that's right. still don't understand your question.
you know your max upload speed and you know your hd speed. what's the problem?
If u are using Azureus, it may be the culprit cuz Azureus usually consumes hell lot of memory/system resources which ultimately slows down the system. U can always use utorrent for maximum performance :D
i painted my hard drives red.. it helps :)
monday is also notoriously slowQuote:

I find that very hard to believe!:yup:Quote:
