I ask this because whilst *arr apps supposedly import downloaded torrents to their respective media folders, my downloads folder for qbittorrent is over 200GB in size when I’ve got zero incomplete downloads.

Have I set something up wrong? Or is it setting some kind of hard link between the downloads and media folder?

    I have a feeling it may just be TrueNAS reporting it weirdly, or at least not in the way I expected.

    I’ve just checked the file system in the console and the folders in question have multiple hard links when I run ls -la.

    I think TrueNAS is just marking the qbt download dir’s size as the full amount of the folders before they’re hard linked. Either way it’s recorded I’m sure it’s not actually duplicating the data now! phew!

    And yes I’m aware of the docker issues, whilst vague radarr/sonarr explained it pretty well
