How much power do you guys have on the pool? Got 400 GB myself, slowing working towards 1 TB.

Your CPU would probably take a bit over a week and a half to plot 8TB of data, given my 8350s take about an eigth of that time for 2TB. They are overclocked a few hundred megahertz, but nothing significant.

Yup, you could move the drive over from a 'generation' computer to a mining computer with ease. Easiest method is to simply run a different miner for each drive.

4096 plots per GB of data, as each plot is 256kb in size.

Joining a pool currently would require a replot of your drives using the public key (address) of an account owned and controlled by the BURST pool.

I thought of trying that, but how long would it take an AMD quad core (I think its a 4130) to plot 8 GB?  I have 2 computers with the same model motherboard, I could plot one on each then put both drives in one pc to save time, I think.

And is it 4096 per GB?

Whats the details on the mining pool, and would I have to re-plot the drives if I joined the pool?

Mined 9 blocks after 11 days. Keep Going....

even after adding an additional 4gb of ram i was unable to push the max java heap size beyond 1450m and it ran out of mem again sometime last night with about 2.5tb plot size. so installed jre8 64 bit version of java and can now alloc beyond 1500m and am trying 1750m. so it does look like you need java 64 bit version to handle the more mem required when your plot sizes go beyond 2TB in total.

I have some trouble with mining my pool plot with linux. Actually there's only a mine.BAT and copy'n'paste it into a .sh file doesn't start the mining process without errors.

 Any ideas?

Thanks 

Your miner didn't find a share that is 50,000 or lower deadline. That's fine, it will take some time.

I did that
what is this problem?

Gaps are not troublesome, and wouldn't be worth the effort of filling in, when you could just continue where your last plot left off.

I've thought the same!

You can make it even simpler by just doing a JBOD/Spanning volume and make the drives recognized as a single 8TB drive. Then you can just put one miner and one wallet. You might have to make the volume a GPT, not MBR.

1.
First your need the Wallet to generate your adress. Your can use 1 central Wallet for many miners and other systems. But the wallet must be opened for other network Systems.
Go to Burst/conf/ nxt-default
Change in This Config under
#### API SERVER ####

nxt.allowedBotHosts=0.0.0.0; *
nxt.apiServerHost=0.0.0.0

This 2 point from local to open for all or your IPs.

look at the manual in the first post für the miner and genrate.

2.

Volumen : 256 = nuancen
4000000000 : 256 = 15.625.000

With 4 Plots your need 4 plots with 3900000

Plot 1:          Startpoint   plotsize
*youradress* 0              3900000 1000 cores
Plot 2:
*youradress* 3900000    3900000 1000 cores
Plot 3:
*youradress* 7800000    3900000 1000 cores
Plot 4:
*youradress* 11700000  3900000 1000 cores

3. Your can generating more plots if your have enough CPU cores.

4. Yes and your can mine and generationg an the same time.

Could the plot range checker be modified so it also reports any gaps ?

Let's see if I understand this correctly.  In order to run 2 4 TB drives worth of plots, on a computer with another smaller drive as its boot drive (Windows 7 64 bit), I need to:

1. Download the 1.0.2 wallet and miner folders onto each freshly formatted hard drive.  Since I already have my folders on my laptop, I can just Copy and Paste them to a flash drive, then onto the other 4 TB drives.  This will negate the need to generate a new wallet address and all coins will go to the wallet I already have?

2. Go onto 1 of the 4 TB drives, and have the miner start generating a plot.  I'll make 1 plot the size of the whole drive.  And take care to number the plot of one drive differently than any other plot on any other drive going to my wallet?  So drive 1 might read plot 1 to 5000000, and drive 2 would then have to be 5000001 to 10000000 (Those are just made up numbers).  Drive 3 might be 10000001 to 15000000, drive 4 would be 15000001 to 20000000, etc?

3. Go onto the other 4 TB hard drive, and have its miner program start making a plot also.  Can I make both hard drives' plots at the same time, or only one at a time?  I have 2 identical motherboards in my GPU miners, I could put one 4 TB drive on each to make the plots simultaneously, then put both drives on one PC?

4. Once that is done, just go to each 4 TB drive, open the miner folder, and click run_mine, so I have 2 run_mine command line windows open, and 2 BURST windows open?

Yes?

Tell me again, it is 4096 units per GB?  So a 100 GB plot file would have numbers from 1 to 409600?

16384000 would be the right number for a 4000 GB (3.90 TB) plot file?

We should plan on getting on a REAL exchange soon.   

Very good article. Burst needs more PR, website and social media.

The Burstdev is concerned with the development. But the community can help with PR, website and donate.

This is a great and innovative coin, but we can make it even more.

Just say..

i have a technical question about the wallet ui in the mined blocks view.

is there a limit for entries in the list set? what happens if someone mined really many blocks? can it freeze the browser?
not sure if anyone can answer this or shares my concern but this list may become really huge for some users ;-)
