I'm trying to download a gigantic 600gig torrent but torrent keeps getting disconnected from my usb hdd after downloading 500megs of the torrent, clicking on force download works for a while but then it goes back to getting disconnected :/.

Oil Overload 8 Torrent Downloads - download free torrents! mega


Download File ••• https://t.co/KWBtG6PZn0



If that is the case and assuming that your mega torrent is composed of several files, then, check the activity light on the HDD enclosure (if it has one - it should). If it flickers constantly while the speed drops to zero, what's happening is that uTP just ordered the HDD to create a few monster files of several Gigs each and while the HDD is doing so, it is busy so, it won't take any info from the USB interface. Solution? Replace the USB interface (i.e. buy a better HDD enclosure) or, be patient. Eventually, the HDD will finish writing the mega file and DL will resume.

I have seen this happening with cheap USB or SATA interfaces. With more expensive ones it would seem to work. Also, I have seen this effect happening with ATA interfaces. So, I guess my explanation is not entirely correct, but ballpark only. However, the solutions outlined above do work.

I think the creation of the chunks gets in conflict the files that are at the same time being downloaded to the hdd and thus this kills the process cause the hdd connection is getting overloaded, the hdd just resets itself and no chunks are being created, it just sits there static.

Now, how can I distribute it?
I wouldn't mind charging for it (I suppose any infrastructure for it would cost money, for bandwidth if nothing else).
But I wouldn't mind sharing it for free if there are no costs for me.

2.8 Limitation on Serving Non-HTML Content The Service is offered primarily as a platform to cache and serve web pages and websites. Unless explicitly included as a part of a Paid Service purchased by you, you agree to use the Service solely for the purpose of serving web pages as viewed through a web browser or other functionally equivalent applications and rendering Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) or other functional equivalents. Use of the Service for serving video (unless purchased separately as a Paid Service) or a disproportionate percentage of pictures, audio files, or other non-HTML content, is prohibited.

Make a torrent and upload it to a forum that is popular in your country. If it's nothing highly illegal, you can seed the initial copy from your home connection. And if it's in any demand, afterwards there likely will be a few seeds at all times.

If not that, then get a Kimsufi KS1 for 5 EUR (6 soon), I assume it's not a terribly high cost, that you will need to offset it via paid downloads (setting up payments, access control and such). Yes it's only 100 Mbit, but if the f*ckers do not want the torrent option and/or won't seed, they can wait a little while it downloads. And you can use the server for any other tasks in parallel, not to mention most or all of those come with a 2TB HDD these days.

I'd cop a cheap VPS with unlimited B/W for this project personally (maybe not Calins - 50 euro a month???)
Throw openlitespeed or something with a nice looking auto-index page & upload the file to that.

+1 for this suggestion - A torrent makes a lot of sense for this, with a slower direct download option (perhaps also mirrored to other file download sites like Mega, plus your own VPS/dedi for those folks) as well. I would even throttle the download speed for the VPS/dedi down to like 1Mbit per IP or something just to really encourage use of the torrent. Could point folks to something like webtorrent, too:

Another option would be to look into a sort of script (Powershell?) to achieve a desired configuration state for the application. The end user provides their own Windows installation and executes the script to pull down the software and perform the required configuration steps automatically (or semi-automatically if user input is needed - perhaps through prompts at the beginning or through an "answer" file).

I had already made videos with detailed step-by-step instructions on how anyone can do it by themselves, on their PC.
I've also made an article explaining how to install and configure VirtualBox for any Linux users (or Win 11 for that matter).

The way I see money - it's best used as a way of showing gratitude and appreciation. If someone is not willing to pay for my time and (potential) expenses (even those offering free VPS - it's not fair to not pay for what I'm using, IMO), they don't really appreciate it.

Torrents are literally designed for the download pattern you describe. Torrents are peer-to-peer, meaning that everyone that downloads, also helps with uploading to others - so if many are downloading at once, ppl can download from each other instead of waiting in line for your overloaded server.

btw is it possible to share a configuration file from virtualbox? in vmware i know theres a *.vmx file, from kvm-firt theres *.xml file
if it's possible, maybe the user could just load the config file -> load the boot iso -> start right away

good idea in general, but a big nope on government instances.
installing p2p software is a risk itself (lmao the most popular torrent software on google has adware with riskware on it), when shit hit the fan you wouldn't want your name get followed by audit team because "we installed this because need to download stuff from that guy"

Yup.
With all the costs (got a confirmation from my reseller hosting provider), pros and cons considered (no good deed goes unpunished ), I've set the price to $10 and think that is the least bad of all the available options, in the long run.

It should cover any costs easily, and it should prove without a reasonable doubt that the package is not official government-endorsed solution, nor promoted as such (since that stuff is free for use - not open source, but free - except the Windows license which govt. expects every citizen should purchase, apparently). It's affordable for anyone who really needs it, but the (IMO rather symbolic price) will prevent any abuse (downloads by those who don't really need it), or false accusations by either the users or the government (hopefully, lol, never underestimate human stupidity).

@bikegremlin, if you want to profiteer off the problem, fine I'll just ignore it, but don't change your mind after people have spent time helping you (for free...) A solution with no cost to you exists but you didn't take it. Bad vibes friend

I wanted to put it up ASAP, since it is a hassle and I do get a lot of questions for help with it. And I did change my mind about offering it for free, even if it's feasible (as explained in my post above).

The real sadness is you spent your time creating a tool that could save hours for thousands of ppl like you say, but now it never will because you limited its use to only the handful that will take the risk to type their credit card into some random webshop

Edit:
I've built the tool to help myself. Since the govt. shit software won't run on Windows 11, not to mention Linux or (God forbid) Mac. It messes up Win 11 installs of other software!?!?
And the support is an example of how support should not be provided.
So it's been well worth my time IMO, and if it helps one more person - cool.
If not - also cool (can't help those who won't help themselves).
The purchase can be made with PayPal, Visa, or MasterCard, the price is $10 one-time, so I don't think that will be a big problem for anyone who really wants it.

I am currently traveling in mostly remote areas until sometime in April 2024. Consequently DM's sent to me will go unanswered during this time.
For staff assistance or support issues please use the helpdesk ticket system at =add

Edit:
It's also fair to note that it isn't "some random webshop," but the official take-your-money-and-run BikeGremlin webshop.
My video on how to configure the damn software is the unofficial how-to guide for that shit.
So it's more reliable and trustworthy than the official stuff - if I do say so myself. Wish it were the other way round.
