50ShadesOfDamon from Poloniex... Came here to learn more about burst and to mine away! Have met a couple of great people here already and that speaks volumes in regards to the caliber of people in this group. I hope to hell there is a lot of development going on for burst because they certainly have great followers!

RE: Storj (mods) and system SUCKS.posted in Off Topic
@darindarin Sounds good in theory but all they have to do is rename themselves and move on. There are lots of failed ICO's out there that have taken peoples money and run. At the same time look at how they are handling people, complaints, and development. They are failing miserably. Meanwhile they have everyones cash locked up?
I don't trust them. Just sold out of my 1200.00 in storj. They can kiss my ass.

@darindarin said in Storj (mods) and system SUCKS.:
@ProSportsPhotog im having a lot of issues with them also ... i can get over the monthly payment thing if their user interface was better and you didnt have to change router settings and open ports etc.. that isnt user friendly the majority of people dont know they can access their router through their ip address in the browser.. ..
also their token sale might not even complete.. im kind of annoyed they havent even released the tokens yet.. i think they have till the 20th to complete it and they havent even manufactured the token yet and its been sold out a month
I was unaware of the token sale and coins not being provided. Wow...
The Titanic has nothing on the failure (sinking) of this platform. They maybe responsive but all they are doing is tossing up smoke and mirrors. They are going to fail miserably with the UI they have up. Along with the ports (I went through that as well) and the allocation. They have been doing this for sometime and still come up short. Bleh

@PingOfd3ath Agreed. Good place.. but us small guys at 21tb won't be able to hang much longer lol.

RE: NewEgg deals/couponsposted in System Builds and other hardware stuff.
Word of advice on the Seagates, avoid them. They consistently fail. In our environment (work) we have (had) 256 of them in our array. They have been in service for 186 days and over 40% of them have crashed. Instead of getting the warranty on them we were able to return them and instead purchased Western Digital drives. To date we are still losing seagates and have had no issue with the WD's. It sounds all good, but you get what you pay for. And then think of all the time you put into plotting etc...
And yes this happens on enterprise drives as well as consumer end.

@ProSportsPhotog said in I can see why people get frustrated with mining burst...:
@vExact still to low.. I was getting 11k on the CPU. Again if I am capable of getting 50k I want 50k.. I don't settle for second if another is achievable. And I hear you on getting 11k, that is pretty fast but when I saw 50/70k? That is a number I want to aim for.
I'd do the same. Totally understandable :)
Thank for the understanding! Some common sense.. :) I am just not happy with status quo!
I know it can be done. And two of the best have looked at it. Like @rnahlawi stated, it was probably because the parameters were wrong because i pulled it from my NAS and reformatted with NTFS. I would rather have the capabilities of plotting 6tb in way less than a day then spending 3 if you get my point. Called efficiency... :) Thank god for the help here...

I don't either... if I did, it would work! lol...
If it were me trying to configure and do calculations, I can tell you right away what the failure is/was. However 2 guys on here that are very good at what they do - set it up, and still failures. I just can't figure out wtf is going on! I have literally pounded my head on the table (not near the computer or hard drives) <~Another point of failure if that happened hehe

@ProSportsPhotog wish I could help you, but I have only used the CPU plot generator, which might be slower but also yields optimized plots :)
Yesterday someone posted this video which I hadn't seen... Perhaps it could help you out
Thanks ill check it out..

@vExact its pretty much there except for the numbers needed for the gpu part.. we shall see... The other guy that did it for me was great and didn't charge me but hes on the other side of the world. =(

@ProSportsPhotog Sorry :( I used to use gpuplotgenerator in direct mode on AMD's, but now that I have Pennywise I exclusively use Xplotter.
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.
