    You need to download the files to your own computer via FTP if you want the out from the seedbox.
    The Files link in the screenshot might also help you get to download those.

    Hi there,

    I currently have aprox 1.5TB of data on my PC that i have downloaded from torrents before I purchaced the seedbox. Is there anyway to seed them in the seedbox?

    Storage
    1.27 GB / 400.00 GB
    Upload Traffic
    22.96 MB / 12.50 TB

    Thats the plan I have.

    I think the smartest move would be just to keep seeding those in your own computer and download new releases what will get on the tracker to your seedbox.
    Only way you could transfer those files to seedbox is using ftp to upload those files, or by re-downloading them to your seedbox. (what will make your download amount go crazy high)

    Embrace, there are tons of guides out there for exactly all your questions. Even on Whatbox's wiki they have tons of information about showing you how to setup FTP so that you can transfer files in between your seedbox and your computer, it's all right there in front of you. Join their IRC if you have anymore questions.

    Could I use that from the UK?
    Is this a good fast plan?
    What are the downsides to this plan?
    Can I store the downloaded torrents on my PC computer once downloaded and still seed them?
    I have been with Whatbox.ca for a bit now, and can highly recommend them.

    1. Yes, you can use them in the U.K. I believe.
    2. I am on the Flex1 plan, and it is very fast. With good seeders, I get most HD movies within a minute or two.
    3. The downside is that you have limits, but if you do hit them, you just slow down to 5 MB/s for the rest of the month. Their plans are good, and I recommend the Flex plans.
    4. You can download your files using their Helm downloader or an FTP client. Then you can leave a copy on your seedbox and let it seed for as long as you want. In other words, downloading the file does not delete it from your seedbox, you have to do that separately.

    I hope that this helps!

    From your questions, I'm thinking you may not be completely sure exactly what a seedbox does. I'd recommend you have a look at the following tutorial which gives a bit of basic info:

    What is a seedbox?

    As for your question regarding seeding the files on your PC through a seedbox, the short answer is you can't. At least not the way you're thinking. To seed the files from your seedbox you will need to upload all files you wish to seed from your PC to your seedbox through FTP. Then you'll need to add these torrents to the ruTorrent client and ensure each active torrent correctly picks up the relevant files on your seedbox, otherwise it'll try to re-download them.

    If none of this makes sense I'd recommend you do a little more reading of this forum and the Whatbox.ca wiki to get a better idea of how these things work. You might want to search how to cross-seed as that's effectively what you're trying to do, though through an FTP upload rather than downloading from a different tracker.

    Also keep in mind that you won't be able to seed 1.5TB of stuff since you've only got 400GB to play with on your server.

    Good luck!
