[ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.3 Fork block 92000

[tricass]

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.

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

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

my cpu corei7 2600k RAm 8gig ddr3 i can use -Xmx8000m?

No you can't from 8GB ram you only can use 7.XGB or lower.

is it normal i see 0/24 Up-to-date Peers ? found 0 blocks in 12 hours of 200 gig

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

it's still going. it's a tad below 600GB and taken 1.5 days to get to this point. still lots more to do as i set the range from 0 - 8192000 and it's only onto 2316000 at the moment.

Selling 10k for 0.12 BTC, PM if interested!
No newbie account!

Thanks

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!

Each drive has its own series of plots. Since the plotfile is generated from the passphrase and the file resides within the same directory as run_mine.bat, i created another bat file and gave it the name of the drive letter. This way i know which address belongs to which drive. This means that i am using 3 wallets. So i know which drive generated which block simply by logging into the wallet using the correct address.

any math geniuses can do up a simple chart for hard drive plot sizes?

1gb =
5 gb =
10 gb =

etc.?

What do you mean with "hard drive plot sizes"? The number of nonces?

[cad_cdn]

the calculation to use in the bat file for the size of plots you want to create\dedicate

Like this (I think)

Drive Capacity In 'Gb'    Plot #
6400                         25600000
3200                            12800000
1600                            6400000
800                            3200000
400                            1600000
200                            800000
100                            400000
50                            200000
25                            100000
12.5                            50000
6.25                            25000
3.125                            12500
1.5625                    6250

Someone please correct if wrong. Ok, I give up trying to format better.

Can the plot files be renamed without any issues?

I know they are keyed to one address but does the filename matter?

[crowetic]

I just realized that I have another question...

Do you have to run the wallet on every computer that you are using to mine? Or can you just run the wallet on 1 machine, and use the others just as miners without the wallet running?

Correct!!

Do you have to run the wallet on every computer that you are using to mine? Or can you just run the wallet on 1 machine, and use the others just as miners without the wallet running?

the miner wont run without the wallet open.

You may be able to connect the miner to a different wallet on a different computer by altering the IP in the bat file but I havent tried that yet.

[neite99]

I have to say. I have had more fun figuring this out then I have since I first started mining.

Even if the whole thing fails this is fun 

Kudos to the dev.
