Keep Seeding (lemmy.one)
submitted 1 year ago by monty@lemmy.one to c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

A few months ago I grabbed this torrent from rarbg, and it took weeks to download. Often going days with no seeders.

I finally got it, and decided I'd seed beyond my usual 2x to help others get this. Then rarbg went under, and now I think I'll just keep this one going.

Is there a specific way you backup torrents? Or do you just drop them in a folder?

I put it on S3 Glacier. It's really really cheap to store. $1/TB. But I also have multiple copies locally

Nice! But how do you organize them? Like putting them in subfolders, etc.

My fear is that I would end up with an infite list of files that I cannot organise easily

The only sane way to have a backup would be a NAS with raid 1. Other than that? Yeah, just drop them in a folder. The other dude probably just has them on an external drive, if that fails they are gone.
