Well I felt it was WORTH mentioning, seeing as how I/You have no way of knowing what He/She is running in the Back ground while torrenting, and Limiting connections Wouldn't fix the issue if Say for instance the OP was over loading the Drive with Multiple programs running @ once. So THAT is why I mentioned it.

I'm assuming the user is smart enough to test it without anything else (minus a browser) running. Maybe that's a bad assumption?
