Yes, correct.  I am plotting on fast nvme, and moving to old disks. 
Hi! Has you tried a some like RAM disk for plotting? https://ddramdisk.tech/
This looks more profitable than the SSD... How important is the speed of random access for plotting?

If you have old drives that aren't being used, why not try it. 

I wouldn't spend any extra $$ on it though.   Personally I have about 8 TB of old SSD's I am plotting and farming.  If I get a few coins, great.  If not, no loss.
The thing is you can't use old hard disk for plotting chia coin because they are extremely slow, the best SSD you can use is nvme, you can only use the old HDD for farming that is moving your plots from the nvme SSD to the old HDD

Yes, correct.  I am plotting on fast nvme, and moving to old disks. 
Keep doing what you do best and don't listen to any negative comment, chia coin can actually be the next big project in crypto space, I know it's very hard to mine but that coin will have good value, if the IOU can be sold around 1k to 5k anything is possible, good luck

is this another Burstcoin variant?
Yes its more like burstcoin but not entirely a proof of capacity which is the algorithm that burstcoin uses, honestly speaking to me bust coin is a complete failure because there is no big or huge spike on bust coins value to date, I hope this coin won't be the same thing

Everybody talking about this. What happened in 2017? I remember there was something like this but i forgot about it.
People seem to forget so fast. I remember the electroneum hype back in 2017. How one could just mine with a phone blah blah. The talk about electroneum was all the place from telegram groups, YouTube channels and forums but can anyone tell me how far electroneum has gone so far 4 years later?

Lucky I didn't fall for it, but I do know people who made lots of losses in the coin.
Mining electroneum is easier because many people use smartphones these days so I don't understand why you said some people are in loss mining electroneum, so far it's the most easiest coin to mine since all it requires is just your smartphone

I'm interested in chia too but I want to actually see how this coin performs after listing and also how rewarding it will be if people are mining through pools instead of solo mining, it took bitcoin 10 years to be this big so it's never going to be too late anyways

The painful part about chia mining is you have to keep adding hdd space to keep earning a certain amount of chia coin or your reward will start decreasing, isn't that insane? A gpu card can last you 3 years before they become obsolete, this plotting and farming from chia is no comparable to PoW algorithm, I'd rather buy cards

Users are already mining this coin on farms with 100-200 terabytes. If you make 5-10 plots on your laptop, you would be looking for a block for several years. But keep in mind that the number of hard drives is constantly growing and your chances will constantly decrease.
I do not have large hard drives, and with small hard drives of 0.5-1 terabytes, there is no point in mining

Don't even think about it, yesterday a guy on reddit starts farming chia coin and he claimed that it will take years to earn coins with 100TB, I believe this coin have already reach the stage where by it's too late for people like you to build rigs and start mining, better option is to wait for listing and look at the price on exchange, wait for dips cos it will happen and buy cheap

I'm planning to build a farming setup for chia project but I'm having a hard time making a final decision, should I go with server setup since the farming need to be running everyday or I should just build a desktop for plotting and farming? Also anyone using laptop to plot here?
