How to Move Downloaded Torrent to Sonarr Root Folder

Sonarr version: 3.0.4.1019
OS: Windows 10
Debug logs:
Description of issue:

I would like to get downloaded torrent tv show episode to be deleted after being added/imported to Sonarr folder

Downloaded Torrent Folder (Deluge):
D:\Torrent
Note: This is local hard disk

Sonarr Folder:
Z:\TV-Series
Note: This is Google Drive mounted using rclone

Download Client: Deluge
I have set Deluge to auto delete downloaded torrent once it has reached the seeding requirement.

I downloaded Mandolarion S02E01 using Deluge and it downloaded to D:\Torrent\Mandolarion.S02E01.mkv

Sonarr make a copy/mirror (I’m not so sure) to Z:\TV-Series\Mandolarion (2020)\Season 02\Mandolarion.S02E01.mkv

So, how is the correct way to delete files in D:\Torrent ? Since it takes my local hard disk storage. Manually deleting it or auto delete using Deluge plugin AutoRemovd, will automatically deleting files in Z:\TV-Series as well.

It seems related to Sonarr hardlinks, but since source and destination are two different disks, I believe Hardlinks is not applicable here?

Please help. Googling it and cannot find the answer…

As far as I’m aware (not using torrents myself) you don’t need to use that plugin. Sonarr should take care of it.

Under Setting > Download Client, I have enabled “Remove imported downloads from download client history”. Based on my understanding, this will only delete the list in torrent client only, data will keep remain in storage.

It will depend mostly on what your client does when a torrent is removed… Ideally it has a setting that is something like “delete data when .torrent is removed”.

i would have expected that to be enough. why isnt deluge doing that? is it reaching the seeding requirement?

sonarr wont stop it from doing that.

typically you end up with the reverse problem. how to stop sonarr from removing the job as soon as its completed downloading, so you can reach your seed ratio, which is why these (advanced) options were added

does deluge have a log file you can check to see why its not ending and deleting the jobs
