Have a plot file that works perfect with Jminer, but when I use @Blago 's miner I get the following error.
error Readfile. code = 87
unexpected end of file <plot file>
Has anyone seen this before?

@preslav1980 You will need to lookup the manufacture website to determine what the "Beep" represents exactly, then go from there.
@DevilAngel Mining from more that 1 PC is very common, with less than 4TB you will not make much unless you hit a block. Also note that the mining difficulty has increased so everyone is earning less Burst.
@pipop the values are explained in the readme file in the GPU plotter folder.
@haitch It all depends on where in the EU they are going, each country has its own rules. You would need to verify with the customs of each country.
@haitch Its about 50Euro extra per drive in taxes.
@DigDeep There is a readme file in the GPU plotter folder that explains it fairly well.
@preslav1980 SMR drives are very slow to write to but have ok read speeds. Most uses plot to other drives the copy over to the SMR drives. But as its new, you could return it saying it Beeps, and get a non SMR drive as a replacement.
@DigDeep Reporting any deadline greater than 48hrs (172800 seconds) is just a waste of pool resources i.m.o., as your deadlines are higher than most pools target deadline.
The faster the CPU the better for plotting, with GPU's being faster than most CPU's. The two best plotters are Xplotter and the java GPU plotter. The other way to speed up plotting is to use a very fast temp drive, such as SSD or a RAID0 array, then copy the plot when finished to the target drive.
@gamedevmike Reboot then just launch the wallet and see if you can login either online or local. You will get a message downloading blockchain and there should be a % complete on the bottom. Sometimes it takes a min or two before you see the %, once you see that it will tell you how much is left to download. A few days old DB should be about 97% complete. Try that and let me know how you get on.
@DigDeep The network has grown a lot in the last few months, so you will need larger plots to get better deadlines. Forget the 32bit PC, bigger plots is whats required.
@rmbuan said in Best way to plot:
But now I will be plotting new incoming drives bunch of 8TB seagates and two 5TB seagates. Would you recommend splitting them on different computers plugged via USB 3? Yes if possible, the more resources for plotting the quicker the plot.
Also, it seems when I try to mine two computers at the same time with different Drive letter but the same account only the first or last one I start the mining will show up on the pool history stats!
Thats normal, the one that will be displayed by the pool is the one that submitted the deadline. The pools cannot yet show the total miner capacity per miner, only per PC.
@DigDeep Something seems way off, no confirmations either. Restart you miner and post a screenshot after the first read so we can investigate further.
@jantrance said in Newbie - Faucet not working - few questions:
BURST-5UMP-3TT2-SFPW-CXKVA
is the address right?
@brucedickenson Welcome to the Burst community!
@rattle99
When a block is mined the pool or the solo miner get the block-reward+fees
look here to see current reward and fees http://burstcoin.biz/blocks
The block-reward reduces by 5% each month, and eventually it will get to 0, when that happens miners will only be paid the fees, as the supply of new Burst reduces then the price per Burstcoin will rise to compensate. That's the theory...
