Could you recommend a USB hub, I just find the cheap ones. Thanks

is this still profitable to mien i see the value is tanking again and returning to 100 satoshi slowly, while the diff keep increase? maybe it's a gamble now to buy some hdd to mine this, i think it was always better to buy when it was very cheap and hold until the recent pump, what do you think?
LOL returning to 100 sat , today the price rised again and now it's 415 sat Complete Noob for this type of coin.. What is the best miner to use for burst coin. I have (4) 3tb WD Reds that I am thinking of plotting with a Ryzen 1700 by the weekend. Thoughts? Can this cause any harm to the drives? 1 or 2 aren't completely empty.

Not really, once the drives been plotted it only reads the drive once every 4 minutes.

trying to mine burst as well
but using the miner from cpu miner in the wallet is a joke, I ran it for two days with my 8TB got zero payments from the pool
also tried GPU mining from the wallet it works for a time then after a while loses connection to the pool, this is on a machine that is running claymore with and i7 and there are no connectivity issues
any tips on a pure GUI batch file miner that actually works ? I have a fully plotted 8TB ( took 3 days to plot on the 12 core 6800k machine i have)
thanks for the tips

have you tried a high core count cpu and as many drives as the core count mining in parallel? should equal to very high overall read rates as each drive will read at their max speed im thinking about ryzen or even threadripper for a 16/32 disk setup FX 8570 (8 core) can't keep up with a SINGLE drive read speed, though with JMiner it's at least in the ballpark. Threadripper might, twice the cores and a lot better IPC - but I suspect it would be marginal on more than 2 drives at a time. NO BLOOD WAY would it keep up with 16+ drives, for that many drives you need a GPU to do the mining, and not a real low end one. Reads to the drive depend on when a new block is issued - I've SEEN very rare cases of less than 10 seconds between blocks, a LOT of cases of less than 1 minute (not sure if that's a majority though). There's a site somewhere that keeps track of how long each block runs before it's solved, broken down into segments like "1-30 secs" "31-60 secs" and such.

For reference, my i7 6800K at stock reads 9x 8TB drives within 45 seconds, while mining monero with 7 threads. I'm quite certain threadripper will do a lot better than a 6 core broadwell.

Are you sure you set up the pool right? I've made almost 2000 burst in under a month with less than 6TB..

Which miner are you using? My FX can't get through *ONE* 8TB that fast - quite - while doing little or nothing else on the CPU - even using JMiner. Blago it gets less than HALF the read rate.

unoptimized plots?

Possibly - and I didn't plot it as one file as I hadn't been able to get gpuplotter to work at ALL and wplotter always wants to plot to a /plots directory UNDER wherever it's installed.
I might try replotting at some point - the machine it's in has a pair of RX 470, which hopefully will work a LOT faster than the one machine to date I DID manage to get gpuplotter working on (3 x GTX 1070 at 300something - not 3k not 30k 3 HUNDRED something nodes/sec wasn't exactly impressive).
I thought wplotgenerator did optimised plots by default though?
(edit) nope, it doesn't - but the good news is that I had enough HD space on another drive on that machine to optimise the existing plots, one at a time - and none of my other machines have drives big enough to be an issue yet. Mining is going noticeably faster already with just 2 TB of the plots optimised (except when I'm running the optimiser, or copying the result back to the plot drive).

Possibly, you can verify by testing with a small test file, last two numbers should be identical for optimized plots
