mining with 2 X HDD on 1 X Wallet
-
@vamp111 Have you used the Win Client for plotting on both machines? If yes, then it is important which drive letter you used. If the letter is the same too then you probably wrote the same plots.
C:\ on 1st machine and D:\ on second machine with the same wallet is okay.
C:\ and first and second machine with the same wallet is a complete overlap.You can check the plotting range by looking at the files at X:\Burst\plots
Additionally the pool is showing always the bigger plot as the other users correctly explained here.

i've used the win client yes, on my both computers the drive letter is D (as its the default name of it) can i rename it now, or i must delete/plot it again but before this rename it or any idea ?
how can i check/fix this ?? i really want to understand it so i know how to do it correct and i than can use all my other hdd power, somewhat 5TB but all on 300-500 gb hdds all on different computers (i work in an office) i am willing to infest all of the computers here
thx for the info
-
@vamp111 Unfortunately you have to delete one of the plots. The smaller one would be a good idea.
Then you can change the drive letter in Windows to E:\ or whatever different and plot again.
Another way is to simply plot for another Burst Address and use the same drive letters.

ok so than what is the difference (in reward) if i plot from 2 drives for 1 wallet or plot from 2 drives to 2 wallets, i mean will i get the same reward combined ??
example 2 drives X 1 wallet = 60 B/ day and 2 drives X 2 wallets = 30+30 B/day
??

huh!? I'm lost. So, even if I'm using two different PCs but with the same wallet, it's worthless?

@jervis With the same wallet address and the same drive letter: You get the same redundant plot.
@vamp111 yes, it is exactly the same reward.

So, how can i change the drive letter? Luckily, this topic came out. I'll be plotting on another pc tonight with the same wallet :(

I'm sorry for this but I haven't found a good solution for this situation so far. I'm open for ideas.
-
@daWallet ALso, can you mine two plots with different wallets in the same pc?

This is neat. Thanks :) But we're only restricted to the letters of the alphabet for a single wallet. :(
-
@jervis You can mine plots of two or more wallet addresses on the same machine with blago's miner. Not with the jminer.
-
@jervis If you really want to plot more than 26 Drives I recommend you the GPU plotter and learn how to calculate your plot sizes by hand. ;)

I learned how to do it yesterday with the help of @haitch nice guy. :) I'm plotting right now using the manual thingy.
-
@jervis If you do it by hand you have no restrictions. Just be careful with the ranges.
The Client is more 'simple' and can't know if another machine has plotted the same range, too.

But @daWallet is possible to have more drives than 26 drives on one PC? this is my limitation with the google drives...
-
OK, here comes another one!
if my current drive is already plotted! but i want to change its drive letter from D to E for example, using the disk management of windows, than should i delete the D/Burst folder and replot the drive, or when i restart the client and miner it will go well without reploting..
??thx
-
@vamp111 If you restart the client (check in the tray if the client was completely closed) and then launch the miner through the client it should make the changes by itself... You won't need to replot anything unless you want to change the AccountID in it or the nonces sequence...
-
@gpedro ok will give it a try, thx mate
-
@gpedro @daWallet so i have 2 different HDD on 2 diffrent computers but in the file X/Burst/ plots the file name is the same, does this means they will overlap, i mine with 2 different wallets ?
-
@vamp111 Yes they are overlapped if they were plotted in the same burst account...
