Good morning, need help to impossible situation lol
-
I downloaded GPU Plot Generator and plotting 6TB Network drive with Direct Mode.
-
still no movement.. =/
-
Okay! so not sure how much the GPu makes a difference (like if there is a cap where it doesn't mean as much) but I just ordered a damn laptop! lol Won't be here until Friday though...
Will it make a difference from the 3400 nuances I am getting now?
Intel® Core™ i7-7820HK processor Quad-core 2.90 GHz

17.3" 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) 16:9 IPS
Graphics
NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1080 with 8 GB Dedicated MemoryFrom the little hp gt750m or whatever it is.

@ProSportsPhotog It depends on your drive speed - 6 TB could take 10+ Hours. Double check Performance Monitor though, you should be seeing disk activity for it.
Edit: Actually - as it's a NAS, you'll probably be seeing LAN activity, not Disk.
yeah.. just plugged into the damn router I was doing it through wireless previously lmao!
-
@ProSportsPhotog OMG - you'd have been sitting at the first stage for days - definitely need to be wired !

@rnahlawi Well hopefully you won't mind helping me when it comes in? I can help with more burst lol.. =)
-
@haitch lmao!!!! YEAH! I am a village idiot!!!!

@ProSportsPhotog Supporting a fellow burster is for free :)
Get that 1080 and you'll finish plotting faster than you thought
@haitch what are the best values for 1080 in devices.txt?

-
@rnahlawi No idea sorry - don't have a 1080, and have not had much luck in plotting with an nVidia.
-
@haitch that doesn't sound convincing =(
Drops laptop out window
-
@ProSportsPhotog Sorry :( I used to use gpuplotgenerator in direct mode on AMD's, but now that I have Pennywise I exclusively use Xplotter.
-
Will need some trial n error testing to reach good values .. eventually it will work and its much faster than the current 750m
-
@rnahlawi affirmative
-
Ah! still waiting on my laptop and my first drive is only 0.9% done.. =(
-
My laptop is in!! :) hopefully your offer is still good!

See! He's scared! lmao... :) Thanks Haitch! I am hoping @rnahlawi will be awake when I am awake since he's in another world (time zone) than I am. I really want to get these things plotted.
-
we are plotting much faster now!!!
