Hey guys,

I use emule, and my pc isn't that great and when I upload it slows me pc down a lot. I was wondering if there was a way to stop it and allow downloading at like 20KB? or like disable it in rege like kazaa. Or something that like tricks it, so it thinks your uploading?

Disabling upload is gay, you expect people to share with you, but you don't want to share back....

The only way files will get shared well (and you will get a chance to dl them) is if other people share... think about it,

if everyone stopped sharing, you wouldn't get anything

Finally.... emule r0x :?)

And you guys are made cuz i dun share, i have a made connect and it slows my pc to hell, i have a reason not to share, if i had a fast connect and a good pc at least a p3 id upload but mines terrible

the only way would be too find a moded version of the program

i have tried to limit my uploads using a bandwith controller, but emule notices and slows my downloads down

i'd advice you not to use emule as its well sucky, switch to bittorent or irc :)

look for different versions of emule thats all i can say

there is absolutly no excuse to use leech mods.

your puter slows down when you upload? i say you are 100% god dammed lair!

total dowload=total upload. if everybody would be like you and don't upload, nobody would download either.

instead of looking for excuses not to upload why don't you fix your computer!

offical version and many mods have features that reduce cpu load.

everybody is equal. everybody must follow same rules or ######(you seem to be one of them) will kill that network.

Allright thats just being a straight out ######

I agree, downloads=uploads both slow pc down, but both at same time slow it down even more. My pc is a 566MHZ 256SD Ram, and a 32 Bit card, fix it you say? give me money and I will buy a new one, im not rich maybe you are, but if you have ass comment next time keep them to yourself christ. You seem to be an ###### thats ruining neowin.

he probably isnt talking about the actual SYSTEM slowing down, but more that maybe that internet pages dont load as quickly because he is using all his bandwidth to upload, but i have never heard of it to slow down your pc. i know that emule and mods for emule have memory leaks (at least for me they do) and that could cause it to slow down AFTER A WHILE (like 2-5 hours later) but i havent heard of anything else.

my net upload is capped at 16 k/bytes sec, so if i set my upload/download ratio to 0/0, then i can barely surf the web or play cs, but what i have done is set my upload to 8 and my download is (i think) 32, and that is enough for me.

lol, i can tell you how u can fix the problem so you dont upload, but im not going to, i dont do it (and i know how to) and neither should anyone else. like everyone said earlier, if you dont share, how the hell is anyone gonna download?

my advise to you is, if emule is slowing you down, then use something else, kazaa, irc, etc..

exactly as everyone else is saying. it is not justified when all you want to do is leech/download off other people while others can't download from you. think about it... it's like this: there are a bunch of rich people, and you are poor. you expect them to just continually give you money out of charity... I don't think so buddy. you only get what you work for. so likewise, if you are not about to contribute back to the commnuity, why the hell would they want you?

566mhz is more than enough to handle emule.

if your computer is slowing down during transfers i said FIX YOUR COMPUTER, not upgrade it. big difference.

like i said before, offical client and some mods have features to reduce cpu usage...but it seems like you don't care anymore so oh well.

if i have "ass comment" next time i'll also post it to make sure you know it.

and by the looks of it, my ass comment is not so ass :p

    • Raid 1 - How does it copy?

      By ShadeOfBlue · Posted

      If you look at all RAID implementations that exist, you're going to find exceptions. However, all the modern consumer varieties tend to have some things in common (by default). I'll stick to describing those. When you add a disk to a RAID array, metadata is stored at the end of the disk. It records the array the disk is part of, which other disks are in the array, etc. This is called the RAID superblock. If you create a RAID 1 array, your operating system will see them all as a single disk that is very slightly smaller than a single disk (due to the superblock). Everything you write to the RAID disk gets written identically to each of its member disks by the storage controller. Technically, disks are read/written in blocks (each block is multiple sectors in size), but this is all transparent to the user. Every file you create or change or delete is created/changed/deleted on every member disk simultaneously. This is true whether you have 2 disks in the array or more than 2.  If one disk completely fails, you can still operate just fine off the remaining disk(s) (but see the caution below). If you remove one disk and attach it to another PC, it should work fine. The partition information and everything is all at the front of the disk, just as expected. The superblock will just appear as some extra junk at the very end of the disk, outside any partition. In some scenarios, where it is recognized as a RAID member disk from another PC, there might be an extra step before it will let you use it, but it's all very doable. Caution:  Blocks are read from the disks in a staggered fashion. For example, with 2 disks, all the odd blocks are read from one disk and all the even blocks are read from the other. By working together like this, read speeds can be practically doubled. But this comes with a huge drawback. If a disk doesn't fail completely, but instead develops bad sectors, you may not realize it. The bad sectors may happen to be in blocks that are never read on that disk. In some cases, people have had bad sectors develop on one disk, then had the other disk fail, and only then realized that the remaining disk has bad sectors and corrupt data. Every backup method has its pros and cons. Never trust just RAID, or just an external HDD, or just the cloud. Use multiple methods to backup important data.
