I am looking at setting up a torrenting PC out of an old laptop. Not to torrent a massive amount, just to upload more then I download.

If my bulk storage is connected via USB, am I setting myself up for pain? Is USB 2 usable, or I need USB 3?

It depends on your connection speed, some USB boxes also go to sleep
If you only use the laptop for that, put it internally and do a minimal Linux/Windows installation

I was looking at a basic linux install with the ethermet port configured for 10 Mb as I only have 30Mb upload.

My hope with the external stotage is to use hardware I already have. I will keep the point about external boxes sleeping in mind if I end up with weird behaviour.

HP Z600 dual Xeon thing running Ubuntu with two external SAS RAID 10 arrays. Two arrays each of 4 x 4TB HDD's. I've also got a less power hungry Z400 single Xeon with a quad external HBA card so I'm going to move the arrays onto that to free up the Z600. The second Z600 is a Windows 11 box that never gets switched on.

Z400 already has seven internal drives and there's two more SAS drives waiting to join the arrays so it will be mounting a total of 17 HDD's. Eventually.

Correction, one of tthose arrays is SATA and is pretty much just a backup of the SAS array

once the current hardware craze ends, I will retire my current hardware and repurpose it for seeding. And fill ALL of those 3.5'' HDD bays
