    *Notes*
    - I butchered the calculator at the end by putting the initial space of plots at 92 TiB when it should have been 0 - Which resulted in seeing high profits at first when it should've been gradually increasing instead. Sorry!!
    - I made another whopsy! >< a 2TB SSD can do 7 plots (7 * 256 GB per plot = 1,792 GB) So just the RAM will bottleneck
    - Forgot to talk about RAID. RAID for your final storage is not recommended (you want to maximize capacity) as for your Temp storage you can use RAID to boost speed
    - If you have "Not Synced" problem with your Wallet/Node then try opening the Chia Porotocol Port on your router - Port 8444
    Thank you all for the great feedback! Keep em coming

    Best Vid Out On Chia! Thank you watched 3 x.
    Can One expect never stop , plotting as keep in race ahead of the ever expanding ( odds getting paid)?
    I noticed the hard drives are out of stock over priced.
    Do You see stopping at (1000 plots) or never stop buying HD and constant plotting.
    ( pools make this problem worst?)
    One must keep ahead of this , until people drop out, Not getting paid ever.
    More like playing Bingo.......Just keep buying more and more cards...
    i card guy can win not very likely.
    Thanks help

    • @MiningChamber
      @MiningChamber  3 роки тому

      Thank you!! Yes right now it's a race for sure. If your planning to make good money out of this then youl constantly need to increase your plots which can get really expensive. Maybe once pools are public it will give more hope to small time miners like us

      Why bother with Chia coins? it is new Soon be #2 coin .
      No GPU's Needed, Lot easer build hard drives than GPU's
      It politically better coin, low carbon foot print.
      Proof of space & Proof of Time. No 1599 out there get you in July ( or when ever).
      The bottle necks are the hard drives / plotting computer.
      (A) As of last night and this morning I been able purchase on line ( no standing in line over night) $22 a Ter Bite same price as always been.
      I am "Not Paying" $1,000 or $2,000 For a Seagate HDD ( least Not yet I will not)!
      ( B) You do a build end up one heck of a computer( all goes to 0 )
      ( C) by default you are creating your own server.( tons of space)
      Best part Of Chia Is the way get people to quit.
      Shows ( estimate ) how long it takes to "Win" And as more people get in harder it is .
      Proof of work Miners are Very Poor choice for Chia, too slow.
      Chia Is Not I say again It is NOT Mining it is Hidden investing( space and time)
      ( not proof of work Or Stake). You can sell off your plots.......
      Chia Is like going to BINGO hall .
      You playing ( against)with 60-80 year old women from church.
      Every body has" a system ". Some old Gal just buy ( Plotting 1 plot ) 1 bingo card.
      See some have 2 or 3 cards .....That one lady walks in , has A bag ( tricks). Has highlighter and clips and reading glasses.
      She buys 50 -100 cards a round, has helpers to scan all the cards...( parallel plotting)
      The Big round cage on stage started up and start reading off Numbers.
      O 64! B 19 C 28 ect.
      who going to win ?? well One lady Has one Card yells out Bingo!!!!
      If she has right numbers 1 card will win. All people have mult(pool) cards cry out "Why"
      Most likely that one lady , has all 50 100 ( plots) has better chance.
      The one lady who on side line who has no cards is one only know for certain what out come for her is.
      If Going play one card ....play one card.
      Not going play any cards Great.
      When the one person who has 50 - 100(plots or more) bingo cards walks out with the grand prize well not by accident.
      ( the Coins of Chia) most likely has played game long term.
      5 years before see what Chia will become.
      (2009 in world bit coin for Chia to day )

    Great video as always! Your attention to detail is superb👌🏼
    As far as Chia mining goes, without the pools enabled it really is more of a lottery and a long term gamble since there are so many factors involved which influence the reward, and all it would take is for a big corporation to set up the operation with a few warehouses and the "time to win" (which sounds like a casino anyway) would sky rocket as it already has given the amount of people getting into this. I fear that a lot of people will be stuck in a constant loop of chasing the "winnings" by buying more gear whilst racking up a massive electrical bill (which they might not even be able to afford) given that there is no earnings coming in from this venture, turning it more into a liability rather than a passive income generating asset.

    • @MiningChamber
      @MiningChamber  3 роки тому +2

    Nice thing is that most of my chia farming "investment" is stuff I wanted to buy anyway for later personal use: A 3900X, 32GB memory, a 64TB RAID5 enclosure, and an nvme drive (which I'm not actually using for plotting). The only real costs probably only for chia was an extra 5-bay enclosure for additional plotting. I have access to a few older SATA hard drives, so throwing ten or more of those at the plotter simultaneously is still reasonably fast but won't wreck any SSDs. Bonus: Since I have extra threads available, I can mine Verus with the cpu!

    • @jeremyk3154
      @jeremyk3154 3 роки тому

      John, just don't use RAID for the actual long-term storage of the plots. You want to maximize your storage capacity to give you the largest number of plots possible. If you can find a used JBOD server that would be more ideal than the limited 5-bay enclosure (assuming you want to grow your Chia storage large).

    if i have only one spare HDD can i devide it in 2 partitions one for tem.files and other part for final destination will that make any difference????

    • @flicka401
      @flicka401 3 роки тому

      You must run chia-pos ( plotter ) using two temp paths called -t, and -2; -t is the path to the NVME drive; -2 is a path to a ssd-sata drive
      when the plot is complete 8-12 hours for temporary storage to offload the plot from the -t disk, chia-pos will transfer the plot ( 108gb ) from -2 file to your -d ( destination ) hdd drive when the plot is complete ( 8-12 hours )
      If you try and point either -t or -2 to physical drives you will destroy them, I tried this just for fun last month, and I killed a 2tb WD blue HDD. I could reformat it, sequential writing of large files formatted with linux ZFS format is fine for physcial HDD's, random access of 1.5 Trillion r/w is NOT normal usage for a HDD.
      You must understand that during the 8-12 hour process of "Plot file creation" that 1.5 Trillion read/write are done randomly to the drive, no commercial drive is designed for this abuse. People buy "USED" SAS drives are just getting sold a 'bill of goods', these disks got retired for a reason.
      NEW SAS drives cost more than high-end NVME's.
      Lastly, never use partitioned drives for plotting, must be formatted ext 'ZFS', 'discard' on linux, you must frequently 'trim' the SSD or it will slow to a crawl, 'discard' tells the OS to clean (run fstrim ) the NVME, its not an automatic process.

      Definitely you could RAID the enterprise grade SSD's to increase performance of generating plots. I would recommend using HDD's for the final storage (5400 RPM would be fine but the larger the better).

    • @flicka401
      @flicka401 3 роки тому

      MC is right, use RAM disks for 'creating' the plot you use physical ( moving part ) drives for permanent storage of plots. Enterprise SSD's are fine for -2 temp, but if they're not up to NVME 4/16X PCIE level of performance, e.g. 5,000MB/S. I would be leary. Here's the deal SSD are usually SATA, and that is obsolete and slow its ok for -2 temp storage of the plot. For -t plot creation you must use a high-end NVME drive, chia-net advise the lowest end possible as the corsair MP-530 a $250 2TB NVME with a 3200 TBW warranty. My EVO 980 Pro's usually burnup at 100 plots, or 150TB which is 25% of warranty,
      A normal SATA SSD drive will get destroyed by the -t chia-pos algo, its the work of the devil we say. Sata drives are designed for sequential, the plotting process is 1.5 Trillion random-read/writes. No Sata-SSD or HDD is designed for this abuse.

    • @flicka401
      @flicka401 3 роки тому

      @@jeremyk3154 Go ahead and try it, but if beware to run chia-pos on anything your not willing to destroy. It destroys NVME drives and it destroys HDD's. I think if you had a new rack of RAID-0 drives and you wanted to sacrifice them to the chia-gods more power to you.
      These people buying 'used' retired SAS drives and thinking they can do 20-30 plots per day are going to find out real quick why these drives got retired and sold on ebay for $30.
      Most enterprise grade SSD's that are SATA are now considered obsolete, which is why they're all being sold. State of the art is NVME, enterprise grade. But very expensive, for a hobby that only makes your $10/day.

    Some questions from home-PC-farming perspective:
    1) Is it possible to shut down plotting in the middle and have it continue (rather than start from scratch) after?
    2) Does one know if it's ok to delete the plot being farmed because it already won? Or because one can be sure it never would win?
    3) If one shuts down PC while farming and during the shutdown time it would appear one of the plots "won", would one know it after resuming farming?
    4) Is it possible for several people to plot the same plot? For example, what happens if I compute one plot and then delete it? Would it be possible for anyone else to plot the same plot after that?

    • @flicka401
      @flicka401 3 роки тому

      1.) NO
      2.) Impossible, its like bitcoin sha256 hitting the same thing twice, the plotname is is a huge NONCE, a number that is only drawn once, now you could instance have people sell the same plot to many people online but people would never do that right?
      3.) Plotting has nothing to do with mining ( farming the plots ) typically on your plotter you only make new plots, your miners are your harvesters on your farms of plots, any PC can be running a miner (hpool, or chia-farmer )
      4.) sure but the first one who reports to the blockchain wins, and that will always be the largest pool, and this will always be HPOOL.

      When you 'plot' you run the cmd line "chia plot create -t ... -2 ... -d ..." you don't enter -k 32 because is the default, the only reason they have -k n is so you can make baby 1gb plots for 'testing the software'.

      Use SSD only for temporary drive for plotting and standard HDD for storing/farming. When plotting is completed the temporary files are automaticaly deleted from the SSD.

      If you are plotting ( a 8-12 hour process) it cannot be interrupted, you lose all. If your are farming, e.g. connecting your plots to the Hpool, then you can start - stop the process anytime you wish.
      'sync' is a blockchain terminology, you don't need to sync, or run the blockchain to plot or to mine (farm); If fact as of right now the entire chia-net blockchain is broken, and nobody can sync, they rushed to main-net on 5may2012 with buggie software. Nobody knows when the software will be fixed, and especially the pooling protocol from chia-net, its terminally challenged. Which is why chia-net hates HPOOL, cuz they have been up & running forever.

      This is a major problem here, they have plotting, farming, and harvesting. It's only the 'plotting' that requires a super-computer & NVME drive to make the plots. Once you have the plots you run the farming software which processes the plots and send the results to the block-chain/pool ( lets just say mother ), harvesting is when you have lots farms all processing at the same time. Yes, you can have a 20 year old dinosaur computer, but the problem is they only supported 4gb files up until 20 year ago; Also each plot is 108GB, so a 1TB drive will only old 8 plots, and most old computer's have 512MB hd's; Most of the USB 3.0 external stuff now like 18tb are great but your old computer doesn't support USB 3.0, but you can get a PCIE card to handle this. Mining (FARMING) doesn't require any special cpu, or memory, the farming uses less than 1GB of ram.
      What I do is attach large TB HD's to my plotting computer and as they become full of plots I attach these HD's to old computers, I found that LAN networking doesn't work well, the plots need to be on the same system as their miner. Just like mining rigs with GPU's, you just rename every farmer with its own name, but you always use the same public-key for all your plots, on the WWW interface for HPOOL, all your farmers by name show up and how many plots you have, and how much you are making.
      The only thing here difficult is "PLOTTING", e.g. actually making the plots. This requires a super-computer 8+ core,32+GB RAM, .. and 3+ SSD's&NVME's, your OS needs to have its own m2., your plotter needs to have its own NVME, your temporary target for new plots needs to have its own ssd ( here a slow sata will work ), and then you need to have tons of TB attached to the plotter to save the plots, which get generated every 6-8 hours, if you have a super-computer and NVME plotter.
      Seriously this thing is marketed as green but its all BS, original bitcoin required 512mb of memory GPU mining requires 6gb gpus, and now space-mining requires 300GB of dynamic-ram to create a plot on a super-computer. All they have done is devise new ways to make stuff difficult, the entire narrative of using old computers, and that chia is green is 100% bs.
      There is a gimmick here many people are now offering services of selling you 'plots', think about this for a moment, you pay $100, to make 10 cents/day, and lose 1/2 every week.
      ...
      Your question, I think is you think that your old computer can MAKE PLOTS, it CANNOT, but it can "farm-plots", I really don't know how to explain the difference, these people have really messed up language. In normal mining we just call it mining, our GPU's are looking for a magic-hash every 15 minutes, and the first to find it wins; Here its the same plotting is 'creating the lottery ticket', must be done on a super computer, after that, you can place your plots on old computers, if they have the storage ability to hold 10's of trillions of bytes of data.
