having problems with your hard drive, or simply running low on space. You have reported this problem several times in the last few months. Have you checked your hard drive yet? Has anything helped you? Do you have any similar problems when you are NOT using Azureus? Have you tried another torrent client? Maybe you have a problem with Azureus. Have you checked their support area for help? How much free space do you have on your hard drive currently? You should probably have double the space available for torrents that you are downloading. OS X really likes a lot of free space on the boot drive - at least 10% of your total space if less than 40GB - and maybe 10-15 GB space with larger drives - would be good goals. #2 DeltaMac, Aug 20, 2006 eonxl uix_expand uix_collapse Registered Joined: Feb 18, 2006 Messages: 19 Likes Received: 0 yes, i know i have reported this type of problem several times. not trying to waste anyone's time... i promise. currently i have 6.5 gig available on a 60 gig hard drive. i haven't experienced this type of error with anything other than azureus, although i haven't even thought of trying another p2p app. and the error i had before was different (a "disk read error"). i'll check azureus' support area for info on

I got home and it was not more that a few percent more than when i left. It says Error: Disk read error - direct buffer memory It keeps happening after a disk read few minutes of downloading. If it has something to do with available hdd space thats not it. I have heaps of free space. how can i fix this? ps. what i am downloading is legal. __________________ The first rule of any technology used in a business is that automation applied to an efficient operation will magnify the efficiency.

If the sector number that was read matches the requested sector number, then the sector data is read. the sector data is read as a serial bit stream, and converted to bytes. the bytes of the sector are stored in a sector buffer (usually SRAM in the controller); this sector buffer is distinct from the "disk cache". once the entire sector has been read, the data is validated using E
