Manual plotting - question about nonces and ranges

@gpedro said in Manual plotting - question about nonces and ranges:
To build a 4'294'967'296 PB farm you would spend more than 100 trillion $ and you would get 10 trillion $ by month according to the calculator 0.0 LOL
Do you think I can create a crowdfund for that? lol xD j/k
-
@socalguy LOL you can for sure... I don't think you will had much pledgers but yeah xD

@Propagandalf I have the same setup. Are Linux or Windows? I am using Ubuntu and did not fair well with gpuPlotGenerator in Linux environment.
If you are in Linux, would you go into some detail as to how you setup your system (drive sizes, devices.txt, numbers for generation)? I am interested
in comparing your setup with mine. I am using cpu MDCCT and getting 2048 n/m (very slow) because it is the best I can do.
Thanks for any help you can give.

I have been using this plotter and have had a problem.
The plotter has slowed to a crawl or stopped altogether at 95% complete. My drive is 5TB.Here is input to start:
./plot -k xxxxxxxxxxxxx587 -x 1 -d /media/imbota/burst/ -s 0
Working output:
Using SSE2 core.
Creating plots for nonces 0 to 18907000 (4959 GB) using 12775 MB memory and 4 threads
95 percent done.Does anyone have an idea as to why this might happen?
Thanks for any help you can give.

@vadirthedark a 5TB drive is not actually 5TB (5,497,558,138,880 Bytes) - it 5,000,000,000,000 bytes, or 4,656 GB. You've hit your disk capacity when you reached 95% of 5TB.
-
@haitch Thanks for your quick reply.
If that is correct, is there anything I can do at this point?
If I need to start again, what % of drive capacity would you suggest?
Thanks for your help.
-
@vadirthedark Run the plotschecker (available in the Burst Software section) against the file and it will fix it - no need to replot.
-
@haitch
I am in linux, will this be a problem? Right now I am having errors when trying to run .exe.
-
@vadirthedark You'll need to run it on a Windows machine - but you should be able to map a drive on the Windows box via Samba on linux, then run it against the plot on the mapped drive.
