The start of your reply was pretty condescending. Obviously I looked at other threads but these are literally not helpful in any way. The 3-4 threads I found all assume the person asking has a $5,000 PC and a godly 1000Mbps symmetrical connection, you can't dispute that. I'm no expert when it comes to hard drives and stuff like this but I'm pretty sure that a normal person with an average internet connection should not be using those settings at all and they should be tweaked which is all I wanted help with. Also I'm super confused because if it's been asked every week like you state, why is there not a sticky with a tutorial explaining everything about it? I think that would have saved lots of people time but maybe I'm wrong, so my humble apologies. But yeah in my analysis, you seem like one of those people who has such a horrible real life, you have to make up for it online by making it out like you are some amazing high tier person who can "instruct" others but also give out sly digs at others but mask it with "pertinent" info to make yourself feel better and superior. Not being rude at all with that comment btw. But yeah thanks for your input, I'll go ask somewhere else. I'll also never be reading this thread again so don't bother replying. It's just simply too exhausting to help and read what other human beings have said.

I've been using the free trial for 30 days getting used to StableBit because it's the only Windows based solution I have found. It's honestly been really great so far. I am however looking for guidance on setting it up for Plex family members and then streaming files with MPC and madVR on my local machine. The reason I ask is because it appears some configs like the storage chunk size cannot be modified after drive creation so I want to ensure it's done properly without any regrets. This is the drive creation page. I'm just using a 15GB free GDrive account right now to ensure it all works before I invest in a paid GSuite plan. Assuming I have 60 download and 15 upload, what settings should I be using? Drive size: Whatever I want. Let's say 10TB? Local cache: Should be around 5GB or so? The thing is I like to know how fast the data is actually being pulled from google and not rely on cache for testing which has been hard. Constantly having to click "clear local cache". Cache type: Always expandable Full drive encryption: Tick this and save the key in a safe place Sector size: Seems fine to always use 4.00 KB Storage chunk size: Largest is the best so 20.0 MB? Chunk cache size can be set to Off but 100 MB seems like the one to use? Cluster size: Change it from Windows default? Now that's part 1 done. The I/O stuff is also really confusing me. This is what I've been using and videos load in 4-5 seconds which is perfectly fine for me but if I can get it faster, let me know: Lastly, what do I do with torrents? Is it theoretically "checksum" safe to point torrent downloads direct to the CloudDrive or to ensure no corrupt torrent blocks or whatever, I should be writing the files to my local disk first then copying over?
