how can plot several drivers at same time?

Re: Plot question about multi plotting
Hello,When I start to plot I can just use 1 driver each time?
How it works? I have 2 driver 1 internal another is external I did the external HDD plotting but during progress my PC went to sleep and I had to restart PC .after restart I saw that BURSTCOIN is open but I didn't see any new nonce.How can I see it is counting to nonce?
So I started new ploting in the same driver but it showed me error :it can not find the file .so I changed to another driver and it worked.
shall I format the driver after each time plotting and how?
is it possible plotiting several drivers at the same time?

Run plotschecker and continue plotting the first drive

Yes .Laptop

@Focus
is there a version for win32?
what should I do now?
after installing this I should plot each driver separately or I can plot whole drivers at the same time?
which is better?

I'm sorry for that comment then! guess I'm stuck in my european mindset! Please accept my sincere apologies!as for your questions, first off its most probably necessary to turn off "Sleep" mode in "power settings"/"power options" if your on windows.
Continuing with plotting after "sleep" is not possible!you can also use "plotschecker" on that plott you've already started started. If I remember correctly it rewrites plotfile name so they still can be used e.g mined.
as for writing two plots at the same time, you can do that but its a little more complicated!-)
And I have only done it the gpuPlotter! example:gpuPlotGenerator.exe generate direct M:\plots\10718900860795585473_456459276_4358144_16384 N:\plots\10718900860795585473_486966284_4358144_16384in one line.
If you really wana go "there", I'd need more info from your setup.
sorry again!

Run the plotschecker on the drive using the laptop

@naziburst at Win32 (FAT32) files limited by 4GB, so plotter can't make plot > 16384 nonces
NTFS - ~16384 GB

@nixxda
Thank you so much for your response and apologies! It is very good that we do not judge things and people :)
what is your recommendation for ploting at same time? do you think it is good idea to do that with my PC which is CPU dual core 3.4/RAM 3 gb/GPU 512...
I don't understand plotschecker does not install in my pc .
Blago said my file system is FAT32 BUT it is NTFS

@naziburst
now I get it. he has been responding to my example which is probably wrong for you case (and just an example;)
but why he's saying Win32 = FAT32 i dont get?? There is a memory (Ram) limitation on an 32bit system and so my example would not work because it uses 2x 4Gb Ram. ??no... still makes no real sense.....
continuing in next post...

you dont have to install the plotschecker!
if your in the folder where the plotschecker.exe is hold down "Shift" and "right click" somewhere in an empty space!
Then click "cmd" or "commandline" or similar in the submenu. (my win is german!)
Then in the black window typePlotsChecker.exe D:\plotsor similar to check you plots.

as for parallel plotting two drives, I'd stick to normal plotting if you are doing it for the first time! Its a whole lot easier if your doing it out of the Wallet!
But there are some (older but still true) guides at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=731923.0

PlotsChecker was compiled as x64 application.
I did recompile it for Win32, but I haven't OS for testing, try this 0_1479321333447_PlotsChecker.exemake bat file, like
PlotsChecker.exe D:\plots pause
