It's funny watching people hardcore mining this. Your hard disks will be dead in a year, as fast or faster than if they were on a server being hammered.

This coin is just a money vacuum and the price won't be the next Bitcoin.

From reading alot? I highly doubt that...

I am also working with small plots up to 250gb each and the 0 kb file size stays until the plot is done or you start the miner, once the miner is running you can watch the file growing.

About the size, every nounce is 0.25 mb so
1k = 250 mb
10k = 2.5 gb
100k = 25gb
etc

I use 512000 because i like the number, resulting in ~130gb plots, easy to move around Smiley

I have 4tb still waiting for plotting to complete.
How long did it take you?



It would be nice if someone is able to confirm if mining is possible on the network mapped drives. Thx.

it can't i suppose, because if you want to read or write the network mapped drivers, it will still download to your local first, like you can't edit file in the network mapped drivers directly,,if you can use the network mapped drives like local hdd,,,than who will by the hdd...just apply lots network mapped drives!

i have my miner running on a network mapped drive. i'm using one of my spare 4tb ext4 formatted disk in my qnap whose shared folder i have as a mounted drive on my windows 8.1 machine and i've found 4 blocks with it so far.

My i7 needs around 6h for a 250gb plot with 6 threads so...do the math xD

So I just woke up to find my 100gb plot (server) found a block, the 1tb rig and 500gb still have yet to find one, I got block 726 with 100gb plot, 3 days worth of mining, totally worth it Smiley

Edit - So this means that regardless of the hashing power and number of nonces you have, its just pure luck pretty much that you find the hash with the smallest deadline Wink

As usualy, there is always an avg blocktime but for example when i was mining XPM i had an avg of 1 block per day, that could mean up to 7 days without a block or 3-4 within 24h - random & luck Grin

which better -Xmx?
-Xmx4000m better or -Xmx1000m or -Xmx3000m or -Xmx8000m............?

Depends on the staggering size, 4000m is enough for 8096 -> 2gb from ram to hdd

But i reduced it with my machines, some couldn't handle to write that much.

Imho 4000m is enough and i create my plots with 2048 or 4096

anyone able to tell me what happens if you run out of hdd space before a plot is finished Huh

Nothing, its just like mid-generation, you will mine with what you got so far and it will throw an error at the end because it couldn't read the last one, no biggy.

Ok, thx. Anyway I'l try to do some tests. Probably it is possible when you use iSCSI mapped drives.

You just have to map them to a letter and that's it, i accidently started the plot generation on a network share multiple times, no problems at all.

In Linux you mount the shares, no problem there.

How to split big plot, for example gen from 0-100000 in one file and than 100000-200000 in another?
Every time when i try to gen not from 0, for a example from 50000-100000, its generates from begining (0) anyway.
Made some test...
0 - 1000 = 256000kb / 125 sec
1000 - 2000 = 512000kb / 246 sec
0 - 2000 = 512000kb / 245 sec
run_generate <address> <start> <range> <size> <threads>
so
<address> 0 100000 2048 <threads>
<address> 100000 100000 2048 <threads>
and so on
you mean example
java -Xmx3000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate 17520506009031685645 0 400000 1000 6
java -Xmx3000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate 17520506009031685645 400000 800000 1000 6
in one run_generate.bat file?

No, the range is always the same, you dont create 0 to 400000, you crate from 0 and repeat 400k times, so 400000 8000 would mean start at 400k and repeat 800k times, so the second number stays usually the same unless you want to change the filesize.

And you run the file once, when its done again, i modified mine to
Code:
java -Xmx4000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate <your address> %1 512000 2048 6
so all i have to supply is the starting number.

I start
Code:
run_generate.bat 0
and it creates 0 to 512k next run is
Code:
run_generate 512000
and it creates 512k to 1024k and so on

If the network is fast enough, sure.

It has been said that USB2.0 isn't so you should't try it on 100 mbit but 1 gbit should work.

what happen when created plot generate done?

Then you just mine with them forever, plot size = hashrate

My HDDs are almost full, pc will go back into idle once i am done ^^

I am mining with 3 drives:

Drive 1: 200GB plot: Found 8 blocks
Drive 2: 250GB plot: Found 2 blocks
Drive 3: 1 TB Drive, found 0 blocks, plot is still being generated.

Today another 4tb drive should be delivered on which i will experiment in generating fast plots. Have a idea for that but if this succeeds and many perople do this the diff will just increase.

how to see which drive found the block? thanks!
I think each drive has its own wallet.

Na, at least that's not how i am doing it, all miner run against one wallet - so no way to tell unless you look at them all the time but...does it matter? Cheesy

it matters! because i don't kown different computers run with the same wallet and different wallet's difference, like if you have two computer, pc1 and pc2, each have 100GB hdd, these wallets shares the same account, so , what hashrate did you get? 200GB's hashrate or 100GB’s hashrate + 100GB's hashrate?, for example, if your computer have a core with 4GHz and another computer have two core with 2GHz, which is the faster one?,
so am trouble with this a long time .and wallets in each computer, share the same account or different account have any difference? and if wallets in each computer share the same account with different nxt.myAddress has any confilict? is it the same as different computers just open one wallet? these are all matters! because i don't know how it works, i can't see any hash infomation, so i care these problems!

CPU speed doesnt matter for mining nor does ram, the miner runs with 1-2% cpu usage and 200 mb ram plus your plots only work for one address - just chill and wait.

A config file with paths to look into would be nice so you could run one miner over multiple drives... xD
Was already planning on doing that.

Cool, just looked into the source, Miner.java Line 108 - read an .ini and loop the paths, done.  Be prepared to get paths with whitespaces though Smiley

Hmm i might try to do this myself ^^ are there .jar build instructions somewhere?
I was going to do json config since I already am using a parser for that, but that works too.

If you're using linux:
sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk
chmod +x compile.sh
and then to build just do:
./compile.sh

Cheers, JSON would work but i think it would just over-complicate things for my dirty hack ^^
