New hard-drive. Moving anime!

(1/4) > >>

Kowal:
SO yeah I filled up my internal hard drive in 90% with anime. Other 10% is just windows etc. SO i went to buy a new hard drive. I bought an external 1TB hard drive jsut now. However all my anime I am still seeding is still in my internal drive. Is there a way to move it onto my external disc so that uTorrent client still seeds them but from new place? I would like to avoid redownloading .torrent files if possible.

Another thing I would like to ask is if it's possible that when my external hard drive isn't connected for any reason at the time (I would like to begin downloading straight onto it and will keep it on at all times when downloading/seeding) that uTorrent client automatically starts downloading the file onto a place in my internal hard drive? Like 'Alternative Directory' option I guess.


Thanks!

torrenting from an external is a not so wise move, you know that, right?
the easiest way would be to reload the torrent file either from the site or from your utorrent settings directory.

doubt that automatic switch is possible with utorrent alone, but at least in my client he asks me where i want to save the torrent - just change the drive letter there :P it's not like you are downloading hundreds of torrents a day.

Just stop torrents and change the download location (relocate the files)
Re-check once finished - that is all

And yes seeding/downloading on an external is not wise, you will definitely shorten it's life-span...

is that possible in utorrent? last time i checked relocate was individual file based.

yes. after you've moved the files over

file > add torrent (no default save)

then select the drive/folder where the files are located. It will do a check and then seed/download from where it was when you stopped it.
