RE: 80TB Plotting and Optimise more efficient way?posted in Mining & Plotting
@Rodrigogmail said in 80TB Plotting and Optimise more efficient way?:
Hi, guys
What you would recommend to plotting and optimise 80TB?
They are separated into, x2 WD of 16TB (two internal HD of 8T ) and x6 Seagate of 8TB. There are 10HDs of 8TB. I have seen several videos but they are to basic.WD 16TB has 2x8TB WD Red i guess? You should use them as single drives, not as RAID!
You should plot to this drives ONLY and not to the Seagate, as the WD drives are PMR and Seagate are SMR (If they are Archive drives)
https://forums.burst-team.us/topic/2394/shingled-magnetic-recording-smrIs it a good idea to plot all of them at the same time on the same computer? OR can I do this on different computers? And then at the end just plug back all into the main computer? The Burst account recognise the plotts I need re-link then or something similar?
You can plot on multiple machines, just ensure your plotfiles do not overlap.
https://forums.burst-team.us/topic/288/plots-101/5I have a rig and I can use it for faster GPU plotting/optimisation. For example plotting each HD on a separate GPU, that is possible?
You can use one GPUPlotter instance to plot multiple drives at once ... you can provide multiple GPUs to the single GPUPlotter instance via devices.txt
You can use latest GPUPlotter https://forums.burst-team.us/topic/58/gpu-plot-generator-v4-1-1-win-linux in direct mode or Xplotter (CPU) ... to create optimized plotfiles directly.There are 10HD of 8TB, optimising them in the following order: 5HD optimised for the other free 5HD , then 2HD in to the free 2HD and I will get a one HD without optimisation.
I suggest create optimized plotfiles directly. Like mentioned above.
I did not found any information about managing large amounts of hard drives in a more efficient way, if someone can help, Thanks.
Conclusion:
Plot the WD red drives with GPUPlotter in direct mode ... maybe multiple drives at once, depending on your GPU(S) ... if finished copy over that plotfiles to Seagate Archive drives and repeat.
(Ensure the plots created on WD are not too big for Archive drives, few bytes could make the idea not working)
At same time or alternative you could use XPlotter with CPU. -

RE: burstcoin-jminer v0.4.10 - GPU assisted PoC-Miner (All Platforms)posted in Miner
@Branislav GPU speed i guess ... in my case, only ~13% of VRAM from 8GB is used, while GPU usage hits 100% while plotfiles are checked.

RE: How many usb drives per controller?posted in Mining & Plotting
@LittleItaly It depends on speed of drives and if plots are optimized or not. Quite easy to test ... just add/remove drives and check how/if round time changes ... with 7 drives you should be at the limit.

RE: Mine with Linux ?posted in Help & Support
@LeoFrk2 run.sh is just a textfile ... the command to start miner is within. You could copy and paste the content and execute it directly ... but i think @Creepsky45 suggestion should be working ... And yes, you need java. Check on command line with 'java -version' if you have already installed it.
