That means,I can use plot of 0 to 6000000 nounces on one pc,and plot of 6000000 to 12000000 nounces on another with seam password,but if I make two plots with 0 to 6000000 nounces and seam password on separate PC's it is only waste of space and time?
Correct  FCK!I just lost two days of generating plots if you are right... A lot of us did. Just as a rule make sure that NONE of your plots EVER overlap. done and done. |

as a mining rig does not worth but as a computer always its a good one
better to advertise it elsewhere
You could still mine with these, just not scrypt. You would want to mine keccak or cryptonight or something else. But definitely not gonna make anything on scrypt. |

well, holy fuckballs batman, he could possibly be telling the truth.  |

If I've 2 separate HDD, can I plot in each one starting from position 0? Or are they overlapping?
I mean, 2 separate HDD, can overlap?
I'm using a miner for each HDD
yes, they are overlapped. use different nounces or different wallets.I tested it that before and lost one day in generating plots... Good, it's a week that I'm wasting about 50% of my space..  And what if: Number of nonces (1600000) is not a multiple of stagger size (8191)? Because I'm mining and finding block, so does it affect mining? And if I use seam nounces on two separate PC's,they will not overlapping?Or this will affect mining? If you are working on two different wallet, with two password there is no problem, they will not overlap, but if you are using the same password on each PC for generate the plot, they will overlap! (Correct me if I'm wrong) I hope you're wrong, because if so, then that means I have a few overlapping... But to me it doesn't make sense for a completely separate computer, to be able to have overlapping nonces with a completely different computer... Is there some way to tell if one computer is overlapping another?? I guess I could just watch the miner, and if the numbers are the same and it's doing the same stuff, then I guess that would be a way to find out. If both computers use the same key they will also produce the same results (deadline) for blocks. You are then competing with yourself - and lowering your chances. So I was right! I'm sorry, I've wasted about 50% of my space too..! Yea man, that sucks, over a TB has been conflicting with itself because I didn't think about different computers overlapping eachother. DANG! |

Do you still need this?
Look at the post right above. BTCGraphics, I pm'd you back too, but I was too late apparently. My apologies! |

Yep this is just another scam  Definitely looking that way. Why waste time doing this? How annoying. |

@burstcoin: you are AWESOME!
@Wulfcastle: Thx for all that work, its so GOOD looking :-)
bouth of you should publish a burst address, so that we can donate!
This is my Burst address if anyone wants to donate for my work on the new Wallet UI, the new logo and the new OP. I've provided all my work free of charge and I don't ask for bounties, because improving BURST is a benefit to me as I see great potential for it. Donations are still welcome though  - BURST-CKUG-2DLF-KNL6-EETXA 5k from me incomming ... thx again! 8/19/2014 09:33:58 5'000 + 5 BURST-CKUG-2DLF-KNL6-EETXA 5k from me as well. |

Just so that everyone knows, whoever was following my issues with my server...
I didn't have any other crashes yesterday after adding pause to my batch...
Now, however, I have changed the x amount to 1500 on both miners as they are (or will be) pushing around 2.5 TB a piece...
So far so good... I am pretty sure that was the issue, but I still can't be 100%
I am now also moving the rest of my plotting onto a VM as to not interfere with anything on my important server.
Thank you everyone for your assistance!

Current Richlist, NOT block finder list http://pastebin.com/WkqQhQHUThe staggering is the number of nounces you compute before write everything into file, it depends on the ram available and thats all, you can choose any number you like and it will work unless you choose a number too high for the ram available, that's why 8096 is the limit, 8096 * 256kb = ~2gb I've only used 512 to 2048 and trust me, i am mining fine. woohoo, go me! #33 BURST-79PK-DGC2-M4XP-HUAVB |

So, I am having a random issue and I am not sure why...
Every once in a while on my server machine, one of the instances that is on my G drive (miner instance) crashes out. Just closes. I don't know why it is doing this. It is only on that one drive, the other miner on the other drive is fine, and the miner on the mapped drive on the same server, mapped to my desktop is fine too. It's only the G drive miner, and randomly...
Any Ideas or suggestions on how to get it to stop? Thanks!
I think my question got overlooked, can anyone help me out with this? Thanks! How much ram do you have? If you're running too many jvms with not enough ram on windows, sometimes windows pops a box asking you to close something, then if you don't it auto-kills something. I have a comp with 4G ram running 2 miners that tends to kill 1 miner on occasion, and on another comp my wallet seems to have gotten auto-killed about when I left for work today, causing me to lose about 9-10 hours of mining time. Best suggestion if lack of ram is the case is lower the -Xmx values, or add ram. This can also be triggered by scheduled services starting up, which increase ram usage, so check the scheduler if anything is set to run. Memory amount on that server is 32GB, currently being used is 57% of that total, the DNS server being the biggest utilization. However, this server did crash last night and forced me to reboot it. Therefore clearing the memory. The miner still crashed one time after that restart. My best guess is that it has something to do with the virtual machines running on the system, but I am not sure. ALSO.... I checked the event viewer and there was nothing java related at all. I didn't want to keep quoting the other quote, as it was getting far too large and soon it will take a page per reply. lol. If there is nothing obvious then you will probably have to wait for the pause to catch the error. with what I can gather it sounds like you are pushing it on a pretty important server. (DNS etc) just make sure your not pushing it to hard Haha, agreed. After doing this I thought that a better idea would have been to put it on a VM... but it's already done now, so whatever. I think it'll be fine once the initial plotting is done, then the resources of the miner are very low. I will let you know what the next crash on the pause results. Thanks! |

I think my question got overlooked, can anyone help me out with this? Thanks! Is it just the miner that stops or is it a plot generation too? Try adding the word pause on a line after everything else on your bat file java -Xmxblah blah blah blah pauseWhen it dies it will pause the command prompt and ask you to press a button to shut down. This way you can see what the error is that is killing the process. Once you get that it is much easier to help diagnose the problem. Edit: I am assuming your on windows. Yea, I have already added pause to it, and am awaiting the next time it crashes out.... It is only the miner, and only 1 of the 2 miners running on the system. The one on the other drive never crashes. Very strange. The plot generation is fine on both drives. bad sectors of your HDD? I really don't think so... well, I guess, at least I hope not... This drive, as with almost all of the drives/components in the system in question, are almost brand new WD NAS drives. Do you think that bad sectors would cause only the MINER to crash and not the PLOTTER? It would seem to me that it would be the other way around, but I've been known to be wrong before! hehe. How is your NAS attached ? I think you may have misunderstood, or I may have used the wrong context... The drives are NAS drives, but they are physically inside the server, connected like any other drive with SATA and power. Just regular drives, the RED drives from WD, intended for NAS use. This makes it hard to say what is causing the crash. We need the error or check the windows event viewer for anything suspicious. Yea, I know it's difficult, usually I could tell what the issue was right away, but in this case, I'm simply not sure. This server has virtual machines running on it, DNS server, VPN, FTP, HTTP, etc etc, so it's got a ton going on... If you know of something in particular that may help you help me narrow it down, anything would be appreciated. Thanks! So far it hasn't crashed since I added pause to the batch... so hopefully it just won't anymore, but it happened at least 8 times, so I don't think it will magically disappear. Have you glanced through the event viewer log? Not at this point. But what exactly would I be looking for. There is so much there that it would take a very long time to look through without knowing a general idea of what I am looking for. |

my experience is that only mklink /h (hardlink) would work, but u can not use that on differnt drives ... (i know i have posted that before, cause i thought it would work) so on windows i found no other solution than running one miner instance on every drive! that will work! every drive will commit its own found deadlines for the same address!
I am using Windows 8 storage spaces which seems to work well. You can thin provision it as well. Multiple drives can appear as a single logical drive. When you create the storage space it asks for the max, I put in 63TB (looks like that is the most it would take) so you can just keep adding drives to the pool to expand without worrying about the headaches of sym links. It is working fine, finding blocks and appears fast enough. (I am using multiple USB3 hard drives) This is a really decent idea. I may have to try this later. |

Anyone interested in trading Latium for Linux admin advice/help? I'm a certified linux admin
no. stop trolling. He is not trolling, He is offering a service and accepting LAT for payment. We need more services and games that accept LAT I think he was talking about the guy that just said 'no'. But on that note, I would be willing to offer computer service via Teamviewer, etc. For LAT. I am a sys admin with 12+ years experience. |

I am not in the SF bay area, although I was just down there on vacation. I am in Reno, NV... would you consider shipping?
Also, would you consider selling just the S3's?

I am looking for some hard drives. Larger than 1TB preferred.
I will accept escrow.
Let me know what you guys have! Thanks!
