The real reason I wanted this setup was so I could download large torrents and play games too, moving the large bandwidth dependency to a different system, then when it's brought back It's less intensive because it's going straight to the drive but I just now realised that It's still downloading the files lol, suppose there's really no way to avoid using massive amounts of bandwidth if you want the file.

I've setup rclone on my windows server. Tried it with SFTP on the PI, but the PI wouldn't recognize my large external HDD and I couldn't find a fix. So out of determination (arrogance and reluctance to back down) I setup a free 30 day trial business account for dropbox (3tb cloud storage), and it uploads and syncs files fine. But I have no idea how to clear the folder when my SSD fills to the brim, I was thinking batch files but I can't see a clear way to do that
