    Yes, almost. But i want it to seem like i have all 400tb on my 3tb drive. I want the cache to handle downloads automatically and I want an even spread of files so that none get lost.

    Torrents give me:

    • Chunking
    • Redundancy via multiple seeders
    • Partial downloads

    But they do not give me:

    • A unified filesystem view
    • Automatic caching & eviction
    • Guarantees that every file stays available
    • User side load balancing or placement control
    • A way to say “this file must exist on N peers”

    Maybe I should be typing this into a LLM.

    Edit: ChatGPT is suggesting an IPFS Cluster

    Edit 2: If the torrents stays active I can remove some requirements
