<h5>Volumes and Paths</h5>

There are two common problems with Docker volumes: Paths that differ between the Prowlarr and download client container and paths that prevent fast moves and hard links.<br>
444

The first is a problem because the download client will report a download's path as
445

<code>/torrents/My.Movie.2018/</code>, but in the Prowlarr container that might be at
446
-
<code>/downloads/My.Movie.2018/</code>. The second is a performance issue and causes problems for seeding torrents. Both problems can be solved with well planned, consistent paths.
