Hello, the symptoms are as follows: Excessive HDD activity (fully saturated) when downloading a torrent from some sources.
As you can see in the screenshot, the read activity of HDD 1 and 2 (RAID 1) is maxed out with just 1 torrent active. The torrent itself is only being read from and written to at a slow speed. If I pause this torrent, the HDD activity returns to normal. Even when the torrent is finished and seeding, the HDD activity remains at maximum, even if I limit the max upload rate. The file system is verified EXT4 using the command line suggested in your latest rTorrent update post.
