SSL allows secure and anonymous downloading on newsgroups. SSL is like a tunnel, a secure channel of communication (encoded by a 256 bit key) between two machines (a client and a server). (Usenet providers use the same security protocols as online banking). Secure Sockets Layers or SSL is a secure transaction procedure that increases your security of access to Usenet. What is the security level of exchanges and transfers on the Usenet network?Īll Usenet servers offer SSL. When I rebuild later this year, I'm considering getting a smaller separate SSD specifically for Newsbin install and data directory.Every Usenet service provider offers SSL encryption for everything you download. I have an image of my system and my data is backed up to my NAS. I'm not worried about my SSD going belly up anytime soon (it's only a year old). Newsbin has no issue with larger downloads now. Now my config looks like this:ĭownload path directory: spinning disk drive 1ĭramatic improvement on speed all the way around. I ended up saving my config and uninstalling Newsbin and reinstalling on a partition on my 1TB SSD (400GB free). UNRAR directory on a second physical drive. Newsbin data directory (chunks) and download path on the same physical spinning disk drive. Originally my drive config was as follows: I just hadn't noticed it before because my downloads were previously never that large. When I investigated it dawned on me that the reads and writes on the same physical disk were killing the performance. With larger data downloads, Newsbin couldn't keep up (I'd have to pause it for the chunks to be written to the download path). The only minor issue I've had was an issue with a version that didn't like AMD for some reason (quickly resolved in the next beta!).įor my most recent issue, it was similar to the issue as described in the original post.but I was downloading the chunks on the same physical spinning disk drive as the download path directory. Until recently, I never had any did exactly what it's supposed to do without issue. I've been a registered user of Newsbin going back many years.

If it's any help to you, my top speed (when the stars aligned) downloading directly to a WD Mybook 8TB usb3 drive is 992.9Mb/sec, so there might be some argument for upgrading your external when you next run out of space, but on the other hand, I choose to mostly keep a vpn running that slows my max d/l speed down to 300ish as the time difference in the grand scheme of things isn't worth killing all the traffic that requires a vpn running (especially as the usenet server that gives me those speeds does tend to drop to the 400mb speed frequently_) But for your other question, odds are if your setup supports higher speeds and the 460Mb limit is from the drive and not network issues, you wouldn't get any (final) speed boost from downloading them to a faster drive then moving them to the external drive. So the question is - which is faster in the end. If I want to keep my downloads, I still would have to move the downloaded files to an external drive. I myself have seen speeds up to 460 Mbps only - downloading directly to cheap and slow external drives. What is the bottleneck for speed download is it the 950Pro or the harddrive?
However download storage is to a 3TB 7200rpm drive. I'm using a Samsung 950Pro m.2 on an Asus x99 Deluxe II with Intel 6800K and 32GB memory. If this user let us know about that, it will be a good reference point for the endurance of the SSDs including their brands of courseīest Regards Fisherking Active Participant I wonder with this extreme speed/dl amount to SSDs, what their lifetime will be after TBs of writes. Still, it doesn't come close to the speed this user is getting. While testing, I was able to get 750ish Mbps from a local server to my data and download folder. He switched the data folder to the other drive, then downloaded to a second SSD and was able to achieve a peak of:ġ26 MBp/s/1008Mbp/s with an average of 122ish/ 976 Mbps. Turns out they were both on the same drive. He was downloading to an SSD and had the data folder on a different SSD or so we thought.
