I have many Tbs I want to download & don’t have the space plus I don’t have the $ to invest in large amounts of storage so I’ve been trying to learn about Seedboxes here and around the net and it seems like it might be a solution to my needs but I have so many questions.
Is a seedbox just for remote torrenting and moving files to and from your computer?
Can you logon to a seedbox and direct download files from a website into the seedbox?
Can you create torrents in the seedbox for posting to torrent sites?
Are seedboxes mainly for keeping ratios up on private trackers or do they also accept open trackers as well?
Do you have to worry about DMCA notices with a seedbox?/Can seedboxes see what you transfer?
Can seedboxes be used with a VPN for optimum privacy or is there even a need?
What are some of the best seedboxes which leave a minimal, trackable footprint & preferably use US currency?
Any helpful guidance would be most appreciated. Thank You!
Seedboxes are great, and I can’t recommend Whatbox.ca enough. I’ve been with them for almost a decade and they have excellent documentation and support. I think I pay 15 bucks a month for 4tb storage and use it as a seed box first and foremost, a media server via Jellyfin and the arr suites, and a VPN with OpenVPN. To really get the most of it though you’ll need to be comfortable connecting to your server using ssh. Which is a command line environment, but it’s not too intimidating because of the excellent documentation that guides you step by step.
I appreciate the recommendation. I’m just afraid I’m not tech-savvy enough to work these things plus I don’t want to get stuck with a DMCA or something like that, you know?
