Honestly i have a good 50 or 60TB worth of empty drives sitting about, if its good to mine i may try it.
I think it will be more profitable over time as some plots that are generated at the start may be wanted much later on, unless i'm understanding it wrong

and SSD's are only limited by their writing life, which is pretty long

if u can write a Nvidia GPU miner for burst, u will be rich in no time with 60 TB

Sure thing

The first one with a gpu plotter will have a big advantage. The dev is working on a amd version.

3TB = 5k burst, your 60 will do 100k day(right now) = 0.7 btc daily

If he can make a GPU miner to plot , i guess it could be 7 BTC per day for a while

why? he can just make plot faster, the the paid amount would be the same, he always mine with hdd not gpu

i am guessing faster plot = more payout = more btc ?

is it possible to mine other coin using GPU and mine burst at the same time ? Will it over load or burn out the system ?

that's was my question, i want to know how much 1TB stress the cpu, while mining

with an i7 how much is the %work for the cpu, if you mine with 10tb? i mean what is the limit with one rig and one cpu(i5/i7)?

I really don't know as I'm still using my i5/i7's for plotting. When plotting and mining at the same time, the cpu usage is about 85-90%, with one thread free, on each mashine. Not sure if that answer your question...

mmh no, i mean mining only, how many terabyte i can use with one cpu? there must be a limit, because for every HHD you need one instance of the miner

but if you have only one cpu you need 60 days to fill them all

And I thought that I was bad at 15TB. Mine are just about all full of my photography so will have to get more. Sad

When i say not in use, i mean in draws, i have 7 other systems with atleast 3/4TB in them, mine has 12TB

+10tb as of now, but I'm still plotting. I have a decent NAS with some more space.

The problem is it's so slow to plott with cpu's. I read someone is working on an gpu version, but that will ofc be amd. Cry

Honestly that looks like an interesting coin, but would you be able to do it across multiple drives? i.e. not RAID drives
And is it seriously that slow on the cpu? i mean how long did it take you to fill 10TB of storage that you have to leave alone lmao

just think of the money you have in storage that you cant use Sad

I think my first plot is from August 26, so a bit more than a week. But I didn't know what I was doing then (well, I still don't I discovered today Cheesy

). Concerning money, I had all the hdd I'm using, they were unused (although I had plans for them).

It's still quite profitable. I'll probably also use my NAS for it, but fill +30tb by cpu will make me crazy.

i wonder what's the long term effect on hardware life span when running hard disk and CPU for mining. Hard disk got a life span of xxxxx write. How long can a hard disk last doing mining ?

Well, the hdd's aren't used much in terms of writing/reading. You fill them with plots only once, and then the miner read the plots for every block. The cpu's are pressed rather hard when creating plots though, but not much at all during mining.

I'll keep doing it for awhile. Compared to gpu mining, the electric cost is nothing.

Is there a difference between 4 x 500 gb HDD and 1 x 2 TB HDD ? It seems like a single HDD is better than multiple HDD ?

Backups, disk error checks, defragments are all slower on larger drives. Also if one drive fails then that really sucks if it is your only one.

I would assume solid state will have a long life.

32GB of DDR3 is around $500, and is overkill for a mining rig, 8GB should be plenty

not if you mine burst coin Grin

, 32 are needed

they are at 310 euro on amazon

Why would you need 32gb? I'm plotting with with 16gb, with 8gh, and *3 4gb on my rigs. As long GPU plotting isn't available, the cpu is important - not ram. For mining your fine with even less ram.

and how many terabyte?

+10tb as of now, but I'm still plotting. I have a decent NAS with some more space.

it take you 1 day to fill 1 tera with 1 i5 4670k, fucking long, this is the reason why the diff is still to low imho
