### Breakdown of the Folder Structure
#### Torrent clients
qBittorrent, Deluge, ruTorrent
The reason why we use `/data/torrents` for the torrent client is because it only needs access to the torrent files. In the torrent software settings, youll need to reconfigure paths and you can sort into sub-folders like `/data/torrents/{tv|movies|music}`.
```none
data
└── torrents
├── movies
├── music
└── tv
```
#### Usenet clients
NZBGet or SABnzbd
The reason why we use `/data/usenet` for the usenet client is because it only needs access to the usenet files. In the usenet software settings, youll need to reconfigure paths and you can sort into sub-folders like `/data/usenet/{tv|movies|music}`.
```none
data
└── usenet
├── movies
├── music
└── tv
```
#### The arr(s)
Sonarr, Radarr and Lidarr
Sonarr, Radarr and Lidarr gets access to everything because the download folder(s) and media folder will look like and be one file system. Hard links will work and moves will be atomic, instead of copy + delete.
```none
data
├── torrents
│ ├── movies
│ ├── music
│ └── tv
├── usenet
│ ├── movies
│ ├── music
│ └── tv
└── media
├── movies
├── music
└── tv
```
#### Media Server
Plex, Emby, JellyFin and Bazarr
Plex, Emby, JellyFin and Bazarr only needs access to your media library, which can have any number of sub folders like Movies, Kids Movies, TV, Documentary TV and/or Music as sub folders.
```none
data
└── media
├── movies
├── music
└── tv
```
