I was finally able to sync up the block chain. All looked good until I imported my wallet. A few things went nuts on me. I have Armory taking care of running the the daemon in the background. I also have the BITCOIN HOME DIR set for another drive on my system. All 72GB of the blockchain downloaded to that drive fine until I imported my wallet. First my computer froze on me and Armory pretty much took over. My CPU, HD and memory were all at %100. What's funny, is I have 64GB of memory, Intel i7-5930k processor and an Intel 750 PCI 40 lane SSD drive. Armory really isn't a 64bit application is it? I've never seen a program take down my machine like that. While my Noctua CPU fans were speeding up more and more I let it complete. It just said SCANNING. Anyway I ended up with machine and resources back but 40GB of data on my primary SSD drive in one file called BLOCKS. I thought this was all supposed to be put on that alternative data dir that I set in the settings area? How do I get this 40GB of data off my primary SSD and on the correct drive I have set in BITCOIN HOME DIR?
I never saw such a program give me so many memory hard faults. I'm using Armory 93.2 and bitcoin core 0.11. I don't care if I need re-scan again, I do not want to use my valuable primary SSD space, especially not 40GB for one file that can easily be put on an alternative drive.
This is my current setting:
And here is the file
