Picking a pool with slow USB speed

@weaveR Generally less time than plotting, but there is a lot of disk activity so it'll take a while.
But if you use the Titan X - you can plot them optimized from the get go.
-
@ZapbuzZ Lol wow I managed to plot 6TB in about 2 days the Titan X must be good at plotting it lags the hell out of my computer when I do it.
@haitch Yeah copying terabytes of data to a mechanical drive takes a long time.

1 TB would give you bugger all burst coins anyway
-
@weaveR It was about $650-$700 from memory, and I don't mine with it :) It's the primary drive in my primary PC.
-
@haitch Hah I'm a mechanical drive man I use 2 TB's mirrored for my primary OS drives it's slow but at least I won't lose my data if one of them die I've nearly lost my data twice already because of 2 drives dieing lucky I had a backup.

@weaveR My important data is in dropbox, I lose the drive, not the end of the world - and the endurance of this one is supposed to be great.
-
@haitch Don't you have to pay a subscription for that? I'd probably just upload to my google drive for free or get a backup drive if I didn't already have a mirror, I did have a backup drive too but now thats being used to get burst coins
-
@weaveR Yeah, it's like $99, for which I get 1TB, which is perfect for me.
-
@haitch Lol google drive gives you that for free.
-
@weaveR yeah, and scans all your stuff so they can improve their profile of you.
"If You're Not Paying For It, You Become The Product"
I work in schools - Google had to change their policies so as to NOT scan kids documents, you don't get that protection.
-
@haitch Yeah I'd probably upload an encrypted archive if I was to do it.
