How to download torrent files onto the RN10400
I am totally new to NAS. I am used to downloading video direct to my pc and extedened HD. But I really need help in how to download directly onto my RN10400. It houses 2. 4gb WD Reds. I can't seem t...
Not quite sure I understand what you are wanting to do.
Are you wanting to copy the videos to the NAS after the torrent completes? Or something else?
Hi StephenB
Thanks for your response. What I'm used to doing is downloading movies using Utorrent onto my pc and streaming them onto my TV. I thought this would be straightforward with the RN10400 but I am at a loss as to how this can happen. I got the RN110400 thinking I could point to the Netgear directory and have an immediate download saved there and stream.
Much more complicated than I thought.
Thanks so much for getting back to me!

One option (suggested already by JennC) is to run utorrent or tranmission on the NAS itself.
A second is configure the utorrent app on the PC to move the completed downloads to a share on the network drive. You can certainly do this by mapping the share to a PC drive letter. Though I think you can also configure utorrent to do this directly, by using \\nasname\sharename in the configuration ("move completed torrents to...").
Thanks, will try StephenB!
