Bit Torrent(BT) is one of the most widely used software for Internet downloading at present.It can effectively reduce the load of the server,greatly increase the downloading speed of the resources,and be most effective in downloading large documents varying from hundreds of Ms to several Gs.However there are computer users who believe the use of BT will do great damages to hard disk by the severe wearing of the disk head and the consequent rising of temperature,which will sharply shorten the service life of computer.After a careful study on the basic principles of BT and the hard disk′s working principles,we will find that this view is not accurate.Many causes to the damage of hard disk are centered around the misoperations and adverse circumstances,which is completely irrelarent to both the software and the use of the software.
