I also started solomining on the same plots for the same duration but both java.exe's only read ~22 GB of data in over half a day.

how do you know how much data is getting read? I would love to verify that all my plots are being used correctly

Windows Task Manager, View menu, Slect Columns, tick I/O read bytes then on the Processes tab bext to java.exe you should see (in win7).

@burstcoin I did the assigment and my number is 14167073019037351783

I think you are using 2 different burst accounts and not realizing it.
14167073019037351783 is one account.
16130962611852019868 is a second account which those plots are tied to, and I assume you also have the passphrase to.

what should disc I/o be reading per TB? it isnt going to read the whole disc, right it "skims through it" ?

Yes it reads only a part of it. 256MB/TB of plots.

Aw man! That's what happens when I keep copy pasting the passphrase because the site won't save it and I left in an extra space at the end. Thanks again!

nice its like you knew exactly what my read IO would be

V2 Pool balance

Due to a bug, the v2 pool overpaid some users. I have fixed what I believe caused the issue, and I sent some of my own coins to the pool to cover the difference in balance.

all the sudden two different miners running on different wallets on two different computers both got a "unable to get mining info from wallet" what causes this?

Your internet connection?

is there a way to look at the pool and tell how many GB you are utilizing? by the share count or something i have my first TB complete and want to make sure the plots are working

What happens if there is an overlap solo mining?

waste of space. basically like having 2 of the same lottery ticket. but you can only win one

I may have overlapped by 1.

12 TB worth of hard drives arrived today!  4 3000 GB Seagate Barracudas, and they all checked out good in HDTune and Hard Disk Sentinel.  Time to get them set up on computers and plotting!

All my computers were set up for GPU mining, so there aren't any super good processors.  An i3-4130, a Celeron G550, an AMD FX 4130, and a Sempron 145 unlocked to Athlon 4450 dual core.

This will take a while.  

2.72 TB divided by 256 KB, minus a GB or two for miner files.........

I really hate how it is technically 3 trillion bytes in size and they have the balls to tell you that is 3.00 GB instead of the 2.72 GB it actually is.

I get about 11400000 nonces on one of them.

Technically 1KB is 1000 Bytes, like 1 kilowatt (KW) is also 1000W, not 1024. Its windows thats using the wrong units here.

im still curious about this question, does anyone have a way to tell?

On the hard drive I have connected, it shows 3,000,260,562,944 bytes available after formatting.

Hold out 5 GB for free space and miner software, leaving 2,995,260,562,944 bytes available.

11,400,000 times 262,144 (number of bytes in 256 Kb) = 2,988,441,600,000 bytes.  It fits!

what happens in you rename your plots? for example

16036893174223139082_1_1800000_1000

i had to stop it at 500000... to avoid confusing the over lap tool could i rename it to

16036893174223139082_1_500000_1000  ?

This way its ok. But never change stagger size or starting nonce.

You know you messed up when you get huge huge deadlines.

if i wanted to know the exact nonce it stopped on could i divide the size of the file by like 256 times the stagger level or something so i have a accurate list?

How many coins are there now plz? The explorer is loading for me for ever.

will v1 pool be close down ? I am new and mining at v1 pool
