Then simply enter sudo -i and you will be prompted for a password. Enter the same DSM password for the account you have initially used to log in. If you want to make it easier for yourself, you could change Download Station's temporary location to an attached USB drive. Thanks, but why is this easier than just having a temp folder on the NAS? And wouldn't it just wear out the USB, writing all files to both drives?
I don't think there'd be a real wear difference. If you write the downloading files to a temporary location on the NAS, it then moves or copies them to their final location on the NAS; so they're written to the NAS drives multiple times.
The temp file is accessible through Windows now that I've created a visible one. I think you're right about the files being written to NAS twice though, which seems wasteful to me. If I move the temp folder inside the "video" where all my largest downloads go, then they'll only be written to the drive once though; right? Anything else, music, documents, will have to be moved, but they're much smaller files. Even there, where the final video stays in the same folder, I think it gets rewritten on finalization You may be right, but I don't believe they're rewritten.
An mkv file will have the same full file name, except will be ". If I'm mistaken, and anyone knows for sure, please tell me, as I think it's simpler if the temp file is separate, but not if it's adding extra write wear on the drive. It's not just being appended to, because the portions come in random order. In any event, the wear from a few writes or even a few million writes seems pretty negligible.
My understanding of bitorrents was that it is appending, adding to, the files until they're complete. And a few files wouldn't make a difference, but I'd have thought many large files constantly over years would make a difference.
I could be wrong though. I don't know much, just assuming. I don't see how it can be appending, since it is finding pieces all over the net in random order. I don't understand why it wouldn't be appending.
It downloads all the parts until the file is complete. Nevertheless, it is still a favorite way to download anything for many users. Even though it is just back up, there looks to be a lot of activity. It also includes a popular downloads page. Don't be worried if the website is not accessible in your region, as it's blocked by the Government, which most often happens. If you are really interested in a private site, take a peek at getting in to private Torrent sites. There are several private torrent search websites and it would not be possible to fairly rank them on search engines, as one would need to be a member to totally evaluate.
Be cautious with the sites you decide to go to. Those websites who accepts donations. The very first step to access any blocked site is via a proxy website. Then via VPN.
