@haitch Does it work?
-
@newsense2004 yep - can only go into the OP though.
-
UPDATE
Mining will stop tomorrow evening in order to plot the new 8TB drive. Asset payouts will still be made with my personal Burst due to downtime, Asset holders will not be effected.
Thanks, Newsense.

@newsense2004 Why don't you mine with cpu and direct plot with GPU?
-
@HiDevin I'd actually do it the otherway around - GPU mine, CPU plot.
-
@HiDevin Haitch recommended CPU plotting for plot reliability and once I eventually remove the 1TB from mining I don't want to replot the rest of the drives.
-
@haitch rly? I love the GPU plotter just because it gets things down so fast, I don't think I had any errors with it that's why :P
-
@HiDevin Yeah, I've got some GPU plots that are 100% good, and others I need to replot. I have zero CPU plots I need to redo. Plus, the restartability of the CPU plotter is something I love - been having powercuts, and that sucks when you're GPU plotting an 8TB SMR drive - with xplotter you just resume.
-
@haitch I was just direct plotting from gpuplotter 3 days ago 8tb seagate external idk if it was smr but it only took me a day and a half.
-
@HiDevin 8TB SMR drives are taking me a week .....

@HiDevin GPU plotting in direct mode? my system was generating the nonces fast, then painfully slow writing them to disk.
-
@haitch yea, 1 and 1/2 a day, idk what I did but the max transfer speed on this drive is 160MB/s
-
@HiDevin Mine start at that then go down to about 10MB/sec

@HiDevin Reading shouldn't be a problem - it's writing that's the problem. My SMR are reading at 121MB/s
-
@haitch oh ok, well then xD idk what's the problem with mine, maybe because im using my crappy cpu to read the plots lol
edit: I don't use gpu plotter bc it interrupts mining with nicehash atm
-
UPDATE
Mining has now stopped in order to plot the first new 8TB drive. As I mentioned previously all dividend payouts will continue to be made and I will pay out of pocket for the mining downtime.Well I decided to go ahead and turn the miner back on while plotting the new drive. I am plotting with my CPU and mining with my GPU now.
. Forgot to post these pics before but here are pics of the drive

@newsense2004 Congrats! This is one of the best advancement in the asset :)
