RE: 80TB Plotting and Optimise more efficient way?posted in Mining & Plotting
@haitch
Hds installed and working ...
The WD 16TB does not allow me to work with the HDDs separately, but they are not in RAID.Hdds:
WD1 F:
WD2 G:
SG1 H:
SG1 I:
SG1 J:
SG1 K:
SG1 L:
SG1 M:In the variables
C: \ b \ 01
C: \ b \ 02
C: \ b \ 03
Can I just put the root driver F:, or must I have to create folders?Would be like this:
@setlocal
@cd /d %~dp0
start /low XPlotter_avx.exe -id "your ID" -sn 0 -t 8 -path h:\ -mem 8G (8TB Hdd)
start /low XPlotter_avx.exe -id "your ID" -sn 50000000 -t 8 -path i:\ -mem 8G (8TB Hdd)
start /low XPlotter_avx.exe -id "your ID" -sn 100000000 -t 8 -path j:\ -mem 8G (8TB Hdd)
start /low XPlotter_avx.exe -id "your ID" -sn 150000000 -t 8 -path k:\ -mem 8G (8TB Hdd)
start /low XPlotter_avx.exe -id "your ID" -sn 200000000 -t 8 -path l:\ -mem 8G (8TB Hdd)
start /wait /low XPlotter_avx.exe -id "your ID" -sn 250000000 -t 8 -path m:\ -mem 8G (8TB Hdd)
start /low XPlotter_avx.exe -id "your ID" -sn 300000000 -t 8 -path f:\ -mem 8G (I think here is different because is Hdd of 16 TB I don't know, please let me know)
start /low XPlotter_avx.exe -id 13919803089879865906 -sn 350000000 -t 8 -path g:\ -mem 8G (same)Thanks a lot you guys.
I will make a video on YouTube - Plot for Dummies - simultaneous HDDs with XPlotter. -

@haitch Thanks a lot, I am organising all this information (with the nick of the authors), and making a documentation in order to publish. The Hds arrived next week, I'll give some feedback for you guys.

@IncludeBeer This business is getting serious lol.
You're right I7 of 8 threads 16G of RAM.It would be an absolute success on Youtube, a UPDATED video of how to plot 1 and several HDs runing multiple instances with XPlotter, there is nothing like it.
I'll put another explanation here to help ... I'm sure I'll do some shit

So do you do the same process for each drive? Say i have 5 8TB Drives, don't i have to do something else so the drives don't overlap?

Yes your right you must adjust the starting block to one after the last block on the last hard drive. NOTE: Plotter may adjust the blocks so in the cmd take note of the adjustments the program made and edit your other bat file according to the block number . Hope this helps if you need more help feel free to ask.

So i have 5 8TB drives, i used the nonces calculator. My drives actually show 7.27 TB. So if i put 7277 i get 29806592. So can you give me an example how it should look with the 5 drives? I am trying to understand the setup with multiple drives. Thanks!
Medicine Hat Computers
Hey so your first drive nonce will start at 0 and end with 29806592 now take note of your end number start your plotter for your first drive. Once it starts the program may adjust the nonces for the ending number take note of it. Now for the second drive calculate the new numbers you will start at lets say the program didn't adjust it but im sure it will you will start at 29806593 and end with 29806592 note the program will adjust the ending number so the plots will not overlap thats why you must take note of the adjustments the program makes and add one integer to the end number for the second drive. or have fun waiting for hours to find out its wrong only to redo the plots/. Hope this helps

Ok i got it going and my end is 32700000. So the next start on next drive will be 32700001? and so on? I thought i saw someone doubling size on next hdd maybe i was misaking. Also, i have multiple rigs pointing to same bust account. Do i need to consider those in the chain or are they separate? Like is it possible i am overlapping between PCs? Thanks for this info. Very helpful!
Medicine Hat Computers
ya you bet . it should only write the size you inputted into the bat file from the calculator. Let me know how it goes cuz im limited here with equipment and its nice to know it will work with big drives as well. Oh maybe ive thought of that exact scenario I assume yes if your other rigs are plotted from the same nonces as these drives you may need to redo them but that just a theory that i think would happen .

RE: 80TB Plotting and Optimise more efficient way?posted in Mining & Plotting
@luxe It's clear that I'm no expert on the subject, I tried to read some documentation that is very few without success. Inexperienced users with truncated information between expert opinions, it became complicated something super simple.
Anyway
I think the safest process would be to connect all the HDs on an I7 computer and plot directly to each HD without making copies or move files. Using XPlotter. Will XPlotter automatically "see" the plots and not overlap them?Or I have to manually put the plots values. (eg. divide by 4 the recommended values) I'm confused in this part, because all the explanations I found only shows how to make one plot and not several
Do you think I will have problems if I start the process in one HD and soon after starting the processes in others so on? You are helping a lot.

80TB Plotting and Optimise more efficient way?posted in Mining & Plotting
Hi, guys
What you would recommend to plotting and optimise 80TB?
They are separated into, x2 WD of 16TB (two internal HD of 8T ) and x6 Seagate of 8TB. There are 10HDs of 8TB. I have seen several videos but they are to basic.Is it a good idea to plot all of them at the same time on the same computer? OR can I do this on different computers? And then at the end just plug back all into the main computer? The Burst account recognise the plotts I need re-link then or something similar?
I have a rig and I can use it for faster GPU plotting/optimisation. For example plotting each HD on a separate GPU, that is possible?
There are 10HD of 8TB, optimising them in the following order: 5HD optimised for the other free 5HD , then 2HD in to the free 2HD and I will get a one HD without optimisation.I did not found any information about managing large amounts of hard drives in a more efficient way, if someone can help, Thanks.
