### Seeding torrents aren't deleted automatically ###
When a torrent is still seeding Sonarr will either Copy or Hardlink the files to your library (depending on your Sonarr settings and disk configuration), when the torrent finishes seeding in your client (hits a seed ratio set in your client) Sonarr can remove the torrent from your client and ask it to delete the previously seeding files on disk, this will happen automatically if the `Remove` option is enabled under Completed Download Handling options.
When a torrent that is still seeding is imported, it is copied or hard linked (if enabled and *possible*) so that the torrent client can continue seeding. In an ideal setup, the torrent download folder and the library folder will be on the same file system and *look like it* (Docker and network shares make this easy to get wrong), which makes hard links possible and minimizes wasted space.
In addition, you can configure your seed time/ratio goals in Sonarr or your download client, setup your download client to *pause* or *stop* when they're met and enable Remove under Completed and Failed Download Handler. That way, torrents that finish seeding will be removed from the download client by Sonarr.
