Thanks, guys. I try to keep seeding torrents down to fewer than 4,000. I only make them active if someone requests a re-seed.
What I hate about the uTorrent crashes is that some of the files get damaged, and it takes a lot of work and organization to get them restored.
I'm an old fart, retired, but I used to be an IT Director - but I didn't learn much about torrents at that job 
Hey, BearBearBear.
The crashes aren't very informative. I'd say 50% of the time the error message reports insufficient memory (this PC has 16GB). The other 50% just report that uTorrentPro has crashed.
I have been considering getting another, newer PC. So maybe do that and run a different client, as you suggest. I also have a Mac Airbook, but it is rather limited storage-wise, and is ~8 years old. Fine for vacations, but not a daily-use comp.
Am I the only one who thinks more than a 10 GB torrent download is a mistake? These huge downloads don't last at all - most folks don't have the storage capacity, and have to break them up. Poof - they disappear.
(And yes, before you ask, I don't post new torrents - but I do my best to share, and reshare upon request.)
(And honestly, I frequently see newbies trying to upload multi-GB torrents without a clue as to the capacity of their internet connection.)
Warm regards,

Hello, gaytorrent.ru members. I've been lurking here for years, but need some advice.
I try to keep all my downloads online and available. This hasn't worked well with uTorrent. (I have over 10,000.) It crashes once or twice a day. The files are also spread across 2 internal drives, and 4 external USB drives. The USB interface on this windows PC goes berserk on occasion.
Any advice?
Dear friends who maintain GAYtorrent:
I've been hanging around here for years. I think I have a pretty good ratio. I'm not totally stupid. (Dear Lord, I used to get paid to manage IT shit…)
Looking for advice. All my downloads from this site are on an 8 TB hard drive. That is not a good idea in general, and I AM OUT OF SPACE.
And so it goes. I have been admin on other boards, and don't want to do it again.
