The only way I can see switching my Luddite family off of the streaming sites is by making it easier. Up until now, I’ve torrented the old fashioned way, but now I’m moving into plex (ik, ik, jellyfin is better) and want to start using the -arrs. As I understand it, which I’m not sure I do, the -arrs will automatically grab torrents. In my mind, this would eat up a TB pretty quickly. Do you guys all have massive SSDs (heh), or am I misunderstanding?
As long as you set it up correctly ( unlike myself) and go through your media to make sure you don’t accidentally have duplicates (like I do) it shouldn’t take up much space. The actual -arrs themselves don’t use hardly any space.
