How do I increase plot size and use Xplotter's Expert Feature?



  • Hello all,
    I'm a newbie plotting 2TB drive with xplotter, several times it has stopped and not completed the plot. I've tried to use plotChecker to fix the partially plotted 2TB drive and it says it's OK. (I know its not OK because it stopped plotting at 38% but still takes up the whole drive) I deleted it
    I have managed to create a 500GB plot and want to increase this plot to 2TB.
    My question is can I use xplotter's expert feature to increase the plot size and how do I do it? where do I find the number to enter in 'Starting Nonce' and what goes in 'Threads'??
    Thank youalt text

    @ClariceCrow xplotter can resume a plot, but can't expand a plot. Plot a second file.

    Sounds to me like - you're starting the process and then because it takes so long, your machine is trying to put things to sleep.
    Set your machine to stay 'always on' - hard drives, never sleep, monitor also. - then start your process again (in admin mode to improve speed) - and the process should make it past 38%
