Can I mine with external HDD ?
Yes! But it's need to be USB 3.0 or eSATA if you want to improve read speed! USB 2.0 works too but it's slow for Burst mining. PS: I think a F.A.Q. would be good for repeated questions

Is it possible to change the password to an address? I will be moving soon and would like to sell my HDDs, cables, sata to usb adapters, several usb 3.0 7-port hubs, etc. Basically selling everything you need to mine. I would love to sell the plotted drives so it is truly plug and play for the buyer, changing the password to my address would be helpful. If it's not possible I would destroy the password from my records, it's a very long string of random characters I would never be able to remember again.
If the password cannot be changed, is it possible to implement this feature into BURST?
Anyone interested? $45/TB including shipping for pre-plotted drives, more than enough cables, adapters, hubs for the setup. Roughly 120 TB worth of drives, mostly seagate barracudas. Save yourself months of plotting by taking over my burst address.
Create a new account, and give all BURST to that address, simple

Burst tools for ARM architecture4,40% Funded, Thanks who pledge it!! I have avanced a bit, and now you have cross-compiled DCCT tools and UrayMiner to generic ARM architecture!!! I need testers with ARM boards to check if works properly, i only can check DCCT tools in a slow arm virtual machine, cant check urayminer, (very old ubuntu distribution, dont have needed libraries). Here is my github, you can download and test the tools (miner, plotter and optimizer) in your ARM board! I need feedback guys, if you have a raspberry or banana pi or another ARM board pls test it! https://github.com/kartojal/burst_arm_toolsIt would be good if you help me in this CF case, for better optimizations with new ARM boards, it would be awesome mine Burst with a 60 $ PC!!!

Say I wanted to give mining Burst a try, would I need to use an internal HDD, or would an external USB-harddrive of 1 or 2 TB also do?
USB2.0 is a bit slow for Burst Mining , use USB3.0 or SATA connection! And if the external HDD is USB 2.0... you can always dissemble the external case and use it as internal! EDIT: DaWallet i PM'd you a few days ago, can you response me?

Tried to resync three times, always get stuck at this point: latest 1.2.1 wallet. The latest wallet is 1.2.2 ! Try it.

Hi,
Thanks for the help guys!
I finally got Urays R4 miner running on Ubuntu and it seems to be working much better than the same hardware on windows 7. I couldn't get the dcct miner to run but will try that again soon if you think the perform is better than Urays.
Big thanks to everyone that help me stumble my way through the problems.
Weeee one more to Ubuntu, the right choice! If you need any help with Ubuntu, don't doubt to ask me via PM o here

I have daily 1000+ instances (all are c3.8xlarge) Can I create plots 16tb for each instance and copy the AMI image and start him in other 999 instances? The problem is I have 6hrs to make that and all instances will turn off after 6 hrs of work. And tomorrow I need do it again. Can I use generated plots in other instances? Or they must be unique?
You can't use the same plot for mining, you will mine like one instance. But you can try to do some plotting and save it, and connect when the instances are up! The plots are uniqe because the "start nonce" ! First plot: start nonce 0 total nonces 4398046511104 (16 TB i think) Second plot: start nonce 4398046511105 (one nonce more that before ) total nonces 4398046511104 Third plot: start nonce 8796093022210 total nonces 4398046511104 [...] You can't connect with all these instances at the same time and send a script? Edit: wow, 1000 instances .... 16 tb each... 16.000 TB lol with that i can do wonders

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to get my rig running as efficiently as possible.
I've got 22TB running via external usb 2/3 hard drives but I'm getting poor mining results yielding less then 1-2k Burst per day.
The biggest problem has been finding a miner than runs well with 4Gb ram (tried upto 14gb) with vista 64 / windows 7. I'm using Runaurufu miner but doesn't seem to work well with burst.ninja. Blago runs good for an hour but will often crash I think due to ram or OS.
My total drive scan time is 220+ seconds and I think this is the problem? I'm often the last to submit deadlines and missing out on the faster blocks.
I've been re-plotting my drives these past few days as I found two of my first plotted drives had lots of small plots and that was slowing down the whole setup.
Any other tips? Do's or Don'ts or anything that might help. I was considering de-casing the external drives and setting them up as sata.
Change the USB 2.0 HDD to USB 3.0 or SATA conection, and try the latest Blago miner version, it fix the memory leak in W7 i think. Some people reported bad mining results with W7 too, better switch to W8.1 or a GNU/Linux distro like Debian or Ubuntu. Edit: You can try optimizing the plots too! Edit2: The difficulty is very HIGH now, i only mine like 500 Burst yesterday

Guys, i need your support in the "BurstOSandARMSupport" CF case! It could be a cool investigation ! Think you can mine in a 60 $ mini ARM board, like the Banana Pi, with very low energy usage! I need one ARM board with sata or usb 3.0 support for porting the current Burst Tools to ARM arquitecture, and do some benchmarking. I create a separated post for any questions or proposition, and if its funded, share there my results and the ported tools https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=967495.0Thanks for your attention!

Hi all, i'm developing right now a GNU/Linux SO for Burst users, it will be based in Ubuntu 14.04, live-cd, with all the necessary tools and dependencies for use the wallet, GUI miner and plotter. It will have an APT repository for add future updates of the wallet or new tools, and a friendly graphical enviroment. Just insert your CD/USB and you can start mining! But now i'm focusing more to get the mining tools working in ARM boards like Raspberry Pi, Banana Pi, or ODROID boards. I just cross-compile DCCT tools and UrayMiner to general ARM arch, but i don't know if it works well in terms of perfomance, dont have an ARM board to do some test and improve the developing...(my ARM virtual machine is slow like a turtle ) So i just start a Burst CF to get funds! If you can contribute a little it would be good for improving perfomance! These boards are cheap but i'm a spanish sysadmin student finishing my tech grade, can't get a work now... All the excess of the contribution will be donated to Burst PR funds! Howto guide for use BURST CF: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=731923.msg10453359#msg10453359Thanks for your atention, Kartojal

Guys i need a bit of help Burst OS & ARM SupportCurrently i'm developing an all-in-one GNU/Linux OS for Burst, it will have all the software needed to use the wallet and mining tools converted to GUI, open source, with own repository for install or update your wallet/mining tools easily and a documented wiki. Today was thinking to support ARM boards too (like Raspberry, Banana Pi/Pro, Cubietruck ...) but i dont have any ARM board to do some tests and developt it correctly. So this CF will be to help me to buy a Banana Pro (it cost like 50-60€, has SATA2 and a good read speed, 100MiB/seg, i think that cheap mini-pc can mine Burst with low energy usage). All the excess will be donated to the Burst PR team. You can help me and Burst OS developtment via CF AT. If you dont know about Burst Crownfunding AT, check HERE.Thank you all, Kartojal.

If you will run 4x 3TB drives, what's the cheapest cpu would you suggest? -- I'm asking these because my ATOM 4GB (max) wasn't able to catch up (130sec+) before new block comes in, and my i7 x79 is a bit overkill for 24/7.
Athlon X4? Core2Duo / Pentium 2core?
Thanks
I have an older core2duo e6600 with 4gb ram running 2 x 4.5Tb usb drives but it takes 120+ seconds to scan them. I have a similar setup with amd apu a4-4000 and that takes a about 180+ seconds. I think a budget Intel Pentium G3258 3.2Ghz would be good, my next miner will have that cpu

Ya que veo que este post es muy activo por gente de habla hispana... ¿no hay ninguna otra comunidad/foro en español sobre Altcoins?
