Technical Terms
Description for terms and abbreviations used in this manual.
BitTorrent™
BitTorrent is the name of a peer-to-peer (P2P) file distribution client application and also of
its related file sharing protocol, both of which were created by programmer Bram Cohen.
BitTorrent is designed to distribute large amounts of data widely without incurring the
corresponding consumption in costly server and bandwidth resources. For more details,
please refer to

.
Torrent™
A torrent can mean either a .torrent metadata file or all files described by it, depending on
context. The torrent file contains metadata about all the files it makes downloadable,
including their names and sizes and checksums of all pieces in the torrent. It also contains
the address of a tracker that coordinates communication between the peers in the swarm.
Seeder
A seeder is a peer that has a complete copy of the torrent and still offers it for upload. The
more seeders there are, the better the chances are for completion of the file. The settings
for seed options are available in the BitTorrent menu under Global Settings.
XFS
XFS is a high-performance journaling file system mostly found on Linux Operating
Systems and Network Attached Storage devices (NAS).
FAT32
File Allocation Table (FAT) is a file system developed by Microsoft for MS-DOS. The FAT
file system is considered relatively uncomplicated, and is consequently supported by
virtually all existing operating systems for personal computers.
