Hi, anyone that could help ? It's strange to me to don't have any chance to overcome this "restriction".

Thx, Roberto.

Hi,

Although I use Download Station as my primary BT Client I have never messed with the seed ratios - however after reading your post I had a look - I see that you can change the ratio in % and have a range from 30 mins to 2 weeks & manual stop is this what you are referring too ?

1x TS-412 3x WD2003YYS (Enterprise) 1x WD20EFRX (Green) [Raid 0]
1x TS-412 3x WDC ED30EFRX (Red) 1X ST3000VN007 (IronWolf) [Raid 5]
1x TS-412 2x WD20EZRX (GREEN) & 2x WD20EARS (Green) [Raid 5]
1x TS-859pro 4x WD30EFRX (RED) & 4X ST3000VN007 (IronWolf) [Raid 5]
1x TS-869pro 8X HGST HDS724040ALE640 - (DeskTop) [Raid 5]
1x WDSharespace 4xWDC WD2003YYS (Enterprise) [Raid 0] - The worst NAS I have ever owned.
5x WD MybookWorld White light Edition (Which are fitted with WD Green drives as standard) also rubbish

Hi, I've updated Download Station to latest release yesterday: 4.0.5, in the ChangeLog I see: Remove download/upload rate limitation [NEW FEATURE]

I was thinking that as a way to finally have the "unlimited seeding until I manually stop it" but it seems to don't work, in my settings I've:
- Share Ratio: 999%
- Share Time: Manual Stop

but it stops when the Share Ratio achieve its defined value: 999%.

Is there a way (also modifying some configuration files over the NAS, I'm able to ssh into it and have good knwoledge about unix commands) to have "unlimited seeding time" ?

Thank you very much.

I'll try with 0 value in Share Ratio to see what will happen, thx for the suggestion.

I'm not a Download Station user at the moment but I would not interpret "Remove download/upload rate limitation" to have anything to do with the "Share Ratio". I would rather think that Qnap finally removed the limitation of the download rate being limited to 10*upload rate, that was so hated among leechers.
RAID have never ever been a replacement for backups. Without backups on a different system (preferably placed at another site), you will eventually lose data!

A non-RAID configuration (including RAID 0, which isn't really RAID) with a backup on a separate media protects your data far better than any RAID-volume without backup.

All data storage consists of both the primary storage and the backups. It's your money and your data, spend the storage budget wisely or pay with your data!
