    Default Using two seedboxes?

    Anyone use two or just stick to one big one? I am not sure about the ip rules at each tracker if that would be a problem.

    I generally stick with 1 seedbox but at times I've had as many as 4 seedboxes :P

    Most trackers do not generally care about how many torrents you seed/leech but certain trackers limit the # of locations(IPs) that you can seed from.. such as CHD.

    It depends on that tracker. If they need to be informed about them, they need to be informed about all of them. Some have limits on unique IP addresses, but most allow 3 or more, as I've noticed.

    I would love to just have one but I have three at this point in time for various reasons. As said it best to check the tracker rules to see if you can use a few ip's with your tracker. What I do however is use say, what.cd and scc on one seedbox and fux0r and pixelhd on another seedbox etc, just for example. This way you not fall foul of there rules regarding ip's.

    That's a good idea.

    Would one big one not do the Job for all trackers?

    I use more than 2 seed boxes. Partly is due to my personal preferences as I don't really like to stick onto just 1 provider/1 location; I prefer to use multiple providers with multiple locations. I do have a couple of big ones which I mainly use it for torrents that I will like to seed/store for a long time. While others, I prefer to use it for a quick turnover.

    Strange, how is it multiple locations when most seedboxes are in the same datacenter... such as Evoswitch or OVH?

    One thing to be careful of is that you don't seed to yourself. So don't seed and leech the same torrent from 2 locations, as this will be seen as cheating, and can get you banned, other than that it is generally not a problem, and you are fine to seed the same torrent from multiple locations. As someone mentioned check individual tracker rules to see if there is a limit on the number of IP's you can use simultaneously, and report all seedboxes you use for a tracker if they require it.
