Read somewhere that too many upload slots would wear out my drive faster
Incorrect, you should ignore advice from wherever you read that. Reading from a hard drive produces the least wear on any hard drive whether it’s SSD or HDD.
Yeah showed up as open and its set up router/firewall/app settings wise, worded it that way since I didn’t exactly know if it was a open>its working 100% kind of thing
This isn’t related to bandwidth speed, but dont forget to enable “pre-allocate disk space” if you’re going to be downloading multiple torrents at once to an HDD, as it’ll prevent some serious fragmentation that can slow things way down.
You should set encryption setting to prefer encryption. I also have utp disabled as i had problems with it, but to be fair i only tested that on transmission.

I have a gigabit connection, and default qBittorrent max out my connection (assuming the torrent is popular). Idk why you’d need to change anything.
Torrents aren’t that popular, default settings cap out at 3Mib/s at best
