Because I promised. Trigger warning.

1 Your franken DC is impresive I will snap some pictures of the 1PB+ setup from our office.

Any seller that states you can get a drive with health in the low 90's is to be avoided. You will be RMAing some of these drives its not if its when.

He is correct in most cases you will plot more staggering parallel plots using multiple NVME devices.

Do you have dates by chance. My current pending order is from 5/18 and ETA has been moved back a few times already.

If your ordering from shopBLT you might as well send Santa Claus an order. Both have about as good as a track record of delivering. You will get endless emails stating your *updated* ETA to their "warehouse". At least they don't charge your card like B&H and keep your money in limbo.

Yes now people will be buying expensive RAM. LOL From my testing does not seem worth running out to buy ram for this plotter. The decrease in speed even on raid0 SAS or NVME is too good.

I was already plotting 250/day without this new plotter. Your available disk space will always be the bottleneck

Are you using a ramdisk for temp2? Or is 3 hours just using nvme's?

Some of these drives get tested many times after they are decommissioned. You have some of the big dogs that have the ability to test and wipe like 1000+ drives at once. Any that don't pass most of the time are just destroyed but some of them will sell them in bulk for very cheap to people who...

im actually creating a new coin that works off of PoCPSU which works off a proof of case and PSU. I will drop my white paper soon.

chia mining 100% is the demand driver.

A bunch of these guys basically got boxed out of the ecosystem due to the increase in demand for these drives. They use to be able to get get ridiculous deals from the larger scrap companies for decent sized orders(in the 100's). Most of them are no longer really able to get a hold of what...

The netspace is calculated by how quickly blocks are discovered it is not an exact number. Stolen from reddit.

I think that is an issue he can not solve. He is just passing variables when starting the plot. I don't know of a way to change dest location once a plot has been initiated. To be fair i have not spent time researching it.

I gave up on all pooling solutions. The only way forward is a python or bash script that first checks for free disk space on all your designated plot storage mounts and copies them one by one. I know it sounds dumb but once your caught up it really is the most fool proof way to handle it.

Need to organize rack :(

Just remember ionice may not work on your system for example ubuntu uses deadline now which does not support priority. I hope someone can prove me wrong.

When you start hitting large amount of plots like 100TB+ you see these issues and realize that maybe you should have put more thought into your setup. Even on 10gb network you run into issues of rust disk speed with moving these files all over the place. My setup is as follows. I have four 4U...
