Awesome tutorial! Clear & Easy to follow. Ty
Incredible channel! One of the most well thought-out tutorials I've seen about Chia farming. Subbed!
TY
SO GRATEFUL FOR THIS VIDEO, THANK YOU
Awsome video. very detail step by step!
Hey, great tutorial! I'm building a similar rig, but I noticed you used a gt1030 and I'd like to swap it for your recommendation, the Tesla P4. But these tesla GPUs doesn't have active cooling, is the z440 airflow enought to handle it without major problems?
Our setup gap are significant😂 btw, thank you for your information. Great job dude.
Great video, special thanks for mentioning that newly created plots take awhile to show up and the trick to get them to show up faster!
You bet!
Guide worked perfect. Replotting 800 TB. 3900x, 128gb, 3060TI. 7.1 min plots. Used MSI Afterburner to increase GPU fan speed to 100 percent. All cool at 36C. Had to put HBA on a 1x GPU riser to get it all to fit on motherboard. Still off loads at 275 MB into a 4246. Thanks for all your instructional work on videos.
I'm looking for ways to tune fans in Linux but this doesn't seem to have any easy stuff
Thanks for the video, it was interesting
your build guide is fantastic,, that 256gb ram deffo key on this one.
It sure is!
For the plot manager what should we put for the number of parallel streams(the default is 4) I'm running a rtx 4090 with i9 13900k 64gb ram?
I'm setting up separate machines for plotting and farming, both going to be running Ubuntu. I know you mentioned in your video that you can run the plotter and farmer in different machines, but what kind of complications come about with regards to "sharing" the NetApp 4246 with both machines? Is this possible? Do I need to use a Cluster FS, etc?
You used the GT 1030 for C7 decompression, what would be the best cards for C8 or C9 decompression, do you have any to recommend?
ok for mmx 1.1pb what would be a good cheap low power card? would it be better using a 40 series card under clocked and under volted for power eff?
Question I use to mine eth on a big scale so I got this nifty m.2 to usb to make a pcie slot for gpu, can I use this to service the compressed plot to handle the compression because all my other slots are taken or should I just use another pc to farm the compressed plots from the jbods
Great video DSP! I'm going to gather the hardware and start building. However, I'm curious if Ubuntu will work with this setup. I would rather run Linux but want to make sure I have the right hardware setup and there are no limitations or shortcomings. Also, will Linux provide faster plotting?
*3 months later.... Yes Ubuntu works great and indeed plotting in it is faster.
@2:04 what is the second gpu used for do you really need 2 gpus if that pc is only creating plots and the r720 is the farm?
Hey guy . Did you make any video related to chia recompute server settings .
So I've started the process and have come into two issues maybe you have an answer for. It seems like the plotter is offloading to my P3600 SSD rather slowly. Like it tops out the write when flushing at only 600-700MB/s and I see no reads occurring at all to saturate the bandwidth. The second issue I'm seeing is when coping to the final destination it looks like the files are being cached to RAM (this is an assumption as these drives are used SMR drives and should not be getting anywhere near the 190MB/s write that Windows Task Manager is showing). So this does help get them off the P3600 quicker but it also seems like it may be slowing my plot creation time by ~30 seconds due to I/O to the RAM. This is still extremely fast plotting and I'm not complaining but do you have any insight as to why #1 is happening and if it may be a symptom of #2. The HDDs that are the final destinations being SMR I can spool up 10 or more of those drives to copy plots, they should finish a transfer before being called on again. Maybe this is why I'm seeing slow offloading to the P3600 but Windows Task Manager shows no reads from the P3600 at all through the entire process.
Can you plug each of the QSFP ports to different machines? Say one for plotting and the other for farming? Does each controller see all 24 drives independently?
Your talking about MPIO and while you can do that under windows. I think you need to have a server edition maybe to do it?
Great tutorial, how about doing a new tutorial on using gigahorse to farm in chives. I can't find information available on how to put gigahorse to farm chives plots. I have an equipment with the chia and chives farming. When installing gigahorse on it, chia was automatically detected, but I don't have information on how to configure and point to the chives folder and farm its plots.
Also is there a command line to see the filter
Brilliant tutorial. great channel. I have been scared of looking toward the next steps to grow my small farm, especially when it comes to NetApp JBOD Expansion units or others. Your confident presentation and sufficiently detailed explanations have taken away those fears. One question with regards tech I can find in my budget... can I use a NetApp 4243 or 4486 or even a NetApp NAF 1201 to achieve the same? Will they accept the same 18TB drive sizes? Many thanks.
I can say the 4246 will 100%. The FAS systems I'd be hesitant to guess, leaning to the no side. I think the 48 bay should be okay but can't confirm it.
@@DigitalSpaceport Thanks for the information. Will have to keep looking for an affordable 4246 then!
@@DigitalSpaceport Managed to get myself a DS4246. I have one question about the drives. Those 18TB ones you put in the NetApp were they 18TB SAS 12Gb/s? If so would these work with the IOM6 controllers I have?
awesome video!!!!
got questions below
1.Based on your configuration, may I know if I can replace one of the hard drives while the system is still running?
2.Does the enclosure support WD HC550 18TB SATA hard drive?
You can replace hard drives in a JBOD while they are running. That's part of why they are so awesome. The DS4246 supports all size disks in production today, but you should get an LSI 9207-8e as your HBA to support 20TB drives in the future.
excellent video, i might have missed it, but where do you tell the node which GPU it will use for farming?
You need to check the documents on GitHub if you want to separate your GPU for farming and plotting. Farming will use all by default, plotting will use the first one.
How to connect two NetApp DS4246?
If I have one HBA LSI 9207-8e card.
Thanks man!!!
You bet! This video took a loooong time.
Looking forward for a ubuntu/linux mint guide 🙂👍
Hello, this video helped me a lot, I ask you a question, my server has 192 GB of RAM installed, but in the task manager the GPU shows only 96 GB of shared RAM, my question is the following, is there a way to increase shared ram memory?
In windows, there is not to my knowledge
How much Ssd endurance would repotting take using gpu compression method. Would it be the massive reads and write like a couple of years back?
it depends on how much ram you have. 256GB, no flash needed. 128, 1/4 the writes. 64 I am not sure but it will use a decent amount of writes to disks.
Hey DS! You put out the best content out of all of them. I have 3 HP Z440’s and I bought the HBA’s and netapp like you said but when I plug them in to the HBA the drives don’t show up on my disks. Is there some sort of driver to download for the HBA cards?
You may have the HBA plugged into the wrong port on the DS4246. Its the second from the left and it should have a green light when connected.
Thanks for the great content. My question; why the 256GB when windows will only allow 128GB? I'm pretty sure I'm missing the point somewhere
So windows will only allow half of whatever you have. So if I did 128, then it would cut it to 64 and plotting with 64 is pretty slow.
Hi Digital Spaceport!
I recently acquired some NetAPP DE6600s and I'm only getting SAS drives to show up. My SATA drives light up pale green but not bright green like SAS drives and they don't get detected by my host.
I remember from one of your older videos, you had trouble with some controllers not detecting all of your drives. Does this sound like a controller issue? And if so, which controllers do you use with your DE6600s?
Love the content! :)
I actually ditched ALL of my non SAS drives over the level of green blinkyness... I feel this pain. On the SATA not being detected, use the bottom SAS controller furthest left port. That should get both of them showing up. (assuming you are using dual I/F-4 SAS EMMs)
@@DigitalSpaceport thank you! I currently have NetApp controllers that came with the JBODs and they have 3 ports that look like SAS 8088 ports but the pair on the left have a different key notch so I’m using the port on the right. Although I’m using the upper SAS controller. I’ll switch to the bottom one and see if that fixes it. If not I’ll seek out some of those controllers.
I appreciate the speedy reply!
That worked!! I just moved the controller to the bottom bay and now the SATA drive shows up!
Now I'm going to do some testing to see if SAS and SATA show up together in one bay.
Thanks so much for this!
Hello digital spaceport, Thank you for your great video.
However I have problem to pooling complessed plots. I can make many plots by gup, but I cant see any plots in the pool. even I comaned .\chia farm summery, still 0 plot in the pool. can you help me how to registor to the pool? Thank you a lot!!!
are you the dude that emailed me recently?

Thank You In Advance !
Thanks for the video, but I didn't understand how to choose the type of decompression during farming - CPU or GPU? I make plots with C7 k32, so that later I can farm it on the CPU, and not on the video card. How can it be chosen?
You need to select C6 or lower for CPU. You cannot farm C7 with CPU
Hi I have a nvidia telsa k80 24gb, would this work for plotting? I am new to doing Chia, been mining other stuff for years
It would but Kepler/Maxwell are not great for plotting. You would be much better off with a newer card like a 3060
Did you see me wave to you as I passed you by on SpaceFarmers? 😛
I have an idea. Recently the major memory makers released 48GB DDR5 non ecc modules. So you can have 192GB ddr5 ram in mainstream mobo’s. Coupled with a Linux install would you be able to plot faster than this windows install you showed us instead of going down dedicated server route? Or does PCIe lane limitation hurt your HBA install? Maybe x8 is enough on the video card?
I think the chipset itself limits to 128GB on the desktop boards if I am not mistaken, so it would take all the parties involved to solve this gross "oversight" of desktop users by not giving them enough PCIe lanes and RAM. I think they want folks in HEDT however so that is why they are doing this.
@@DigitalSpaceport - Cheers, reading up on some Deep Learning tech it appears as though PCIe lanes aren't that important for work done by GPU, apparently only a performance hit of 4% if going from X16 to X4. (I am assuming it's similar to this)
Would the bottleneck for this system be the SSDs? I'm getting 3.5 min plot times, which should equal around 40Tib per day right? Yet my farm only increases by 10Tib on a good day.
It likely is the SSD eventually slowing down. If you do not have them in a RAID0, they will exhaust the cache zone and operate outside their buffered super speed and be much slower. You would notice a dramatic increase in the flush to disk probably no more then 10 plots in. You may also be running out of SSD space as it offloads to multiple spinning platter drives (you are writing to multiple drives yes?), in which case the plotter pauses.
There are videos or txt tutorials or howtos online, people with customized HPs posted for shorting pins on the mobo to disable alerts. Might be worth looking for that since alerts can be very annoying...or if you loose power computer will be stuck on alert after power comes back, if you set in bios for comuter to power up on it's own after power loss...
Okay great thanks for the tips. Will look that up, it is annoying.
Please Can you do a vidéo on double mining Chia/BHD or Chia/Mass ? Thanks
Dual mining Chia + fork is now DOUBLE the GPU workload. This will impact the viability to farm forks and IMO forks will not survive. Not financial advice but I dont want to have to buy 2x the GPUs to farm compressed with (if these forks can port to compressed farming, thats technically not "easy") and if they cannot...you cannot use the normal OG farmer to farm compressed plots.
Is RTX 3060 12gb or 3060TI 8 GB enough or better for plotting and farming sametime the C8? And can we do this with AMD cards? I got 5700xt already. And i got i3 7100 as cpu is this cpu enough?
Hello, is there any GPU Farming machine Recommendation（WINDOWS）?
Hi, purchased a z440 and having some bios/boot issues. First, I got the 6 beeps which is error for pre-Video and so I tried reset/clear CMOS, and now, there are no beeps and no video. Doing a bunch of googling, I’ve tried to recover the bios, tried a PCI instead of PCIE video card, but nothing is working for me to get into the bios. Anyone else experienced this and know how to fix? I’ve also tried different video cards that are known to work on other systems. Thanks!
Try reseating CPU and what speed ram are you using?
Wow! That did it! Thank you!
im having an issue with at startup when the ds4246 has drives in it. it just says initializing..... any ideas?
Emil me a photo of the cabling in the back (not up close) social@digitalspaceport.com

very nice video,
cant i replot slowly without RAMDISK?
cant get 256gb :S
You can I am doing a video on that now for various size RAM setups, but you can also use the cpu plotter and that has next very little ram requirements.
@@DigitalSpaceport
i mean im so confused, I have 1080TIs from eth days, I want to utlitaize them on my 2 chia rigs and I have no idea how to attack it
I guess creating budget machine like u made(from last vid) and replot.
@@gabichami2412 Humm I am not sure the PSU on a Z420 can run a dual 8 pin GPU like a 1080TI I think that would be an issue. You do need a fairly large amount of RAM, and these workstations are good ways to get that cheap. Maybe run a secondary PSU? I have not done that but I know some people do.
Hi at 25.09 the remote desktop "enter credentials" where do I get the admin and password from?
Cheers..
It is likely a web based email/password if you setup your computer like that. IF you created a local account, well you should know you created a local account and its password.
I have installed the LSI SAS9207-8E in a HPZ840 and the system states "There are no compatible drivers for this device" I was assuming it would be plug and pay! Your thoughts on this matter?
What OS are you using? If Windows 11 you should enable the "third party hardware" option in windows update to pull the image down. That is the card I used in the video and it was windows 11.
@@DigitalSpaceport Yes, I saw you were using Windows 11. I just have not moved from Windows 10 Pro. However, I contacted 10gtek transceivers where I purchased the cables and they did a test to confirm that the LSI SAS9207-8E will work in Windows 10 Pro with the cables to the DS4246. The problem is potentially that the card I ordered was not programmed to the IT Mode and was causing the issue. I am awaiting the new (to me) LSI SAS9207-8E programmed to P20 IT mode to see if this corrects the problem. I will let you know what happens once I test the new card out.
I wish I was more of a Linux guy! I wanted to ask if I were to set up a harvester using the using the official Chia ca folder and such and have that all operational in the offical Chia GUI, would the Gigahorse farmer automatically find all of those directories in the harvester? I had tried .\chia.exe plots add -d \\DESKTOP-123456\New%20folder which didn't work and realized I should have been thinking about a harvester!
Ideas why I would keep getting a fatal memory error on dimm 1 & 2? Same set up exept with a 3060. Seems like it happens every day or 2
Thats a hw error so I would suggest removing and reseating the CPU, but while you are doing that check the pins on the mobo are not bent with the index card trick. Also check for foreign debris in the RAM slots. If those dont work, you could start down the rabbithole of hardware troubleshooting
@@DigitalSpaceport Okay I'll check! Thanks for responding so quick!
Or can I hook up a second computer to my jbods to handle the decompression I only have so many pcie slots in my threadripper
Yes you can indeed run the farmer on a separate machine then the plotter. This is actually ideal.
@@DigitalSpaceport question how do I check if my 3090 is spinning up on the plot filter and making up the decompression when I'm also plotting
Why you format harddisk to dynamic type?
Its windows. I just formatted them as quick as I could in whatever format they were going to.
Why did you choose compression level 7 and not 9?
My personal farm is C8, not C7. I chose C7 as its base level choice for GPU really. A 3060 will be able to farm a who lot even after the filter cut. C8 is okay for me as I have cheap electric and am willing to buy a big GPU later for an EPYC system if needed. C9 is not a good choice at all for most farmers. The power and compute needed to solve each step up is not linear.
@@DigitalSpaceport How much do you pay per Kw/h?, How many TB do you have on your farm?
@@DigitalSpaceport What do you mean with: The power and compute needed to solve each step up is not linear. All my Harvester are i5 of 10th generation and my GPU for plotting is RTX 4080, so, can I choose comprehension level 9?
How would I go about expanding this setup to 2 jbods? It's not as simple as just plugging in the 2nd jbod and setting up all the drives the same way as the first right?
You just need to daisy chain the JBODS and there is a certain way to do it and you also need specific cables. Check an older article I have here for that. digitalspaceport.com/chia-farm-template-1000-tib-for-10000/
@@DigitalSpaceport Okay thanks, I saw how to daisy chain them in one of your previous videos. My question is how do I format the drives after 24? Won't I run out of letters? (A: - Z: ) So would I need to combine the drives?
@@z5st0rm810 Oh you are in windows. You need to use the Mount as Folder option then past the alphabet to access your drives.
@@DigitalSpaceport yep I'm using windows. I take it this isn't a problem with linux? Just another reason for me to start using linux I guess. Thanks for all your help!!
@@z5st0rm810 No this is not a problem with Linux as you create directories for mounting such as /mnt/mountname and then explicitly mount a drive to that. You can have 1024 mounts on a single HBA card like an LSI 9207 which is also cool.
i have a question, so this chia plot i know they can dmg ssd and hdd easy and fast, but what about cpu and gpu? its safe to buy one of this computers used and be sure this pc its going to work well?
There is a lot of really old information around the OG chia plotter and it hurting SSDs. It was indeed hard on them. It was replaced about a month after mainnet launch with the MadMax plotter and dramatically reduced the wear on SSDs by 3/4. Dead drives pretty much stopped happening then. Chia plotting cannot damage a normal spindle hard drive, folks in the media write that stuff but have no idea. GPU plotting only writes the final plot to disk with 256GB setups and dramatically lower volumes of writes for for 128 GB setups.
Tell me, please. I have the GPU RTX 3060. OS-Windows. It can handle level 7 compression? Thank you
How much it can handle depends on the size of farm, C level, filter size but yes you can for sure use a 3060. The non ti can even plot and farm at the same time.
@@DigitalSpaceport Yes, I checked parallel farming with plotting. Everything works, but all the plotss on the disk are not valid.
@@DigitalSpaceport Why after a different number of compressed plots (15-25) the plotter stops and I start it again?
I don’t get it, why you said in 56:04 that 128GB isn’t enough space for a hole plot when gigahorse says that can plot with 64GB?
192GB fits the whole plot in ram (on linux) and yields the fastest possible times. Smaller amounts of ram can be used however also.
@@DigitalSpaceport ok so neither of 128 GB RAM it still needs a temp ssd
@@steevesmith1573 I use 128g ram with 1 temp m.2 and 1 final m.2 with a 3080ti and it take 3.6m to plot c7 with 1 min transfer to fin directory. I also made a simple C# program to transfer the plots to 3 different hard drives to keep up with plot speeds sense it takes me around 6.2mins to move a plot to farm drives
Bro how did you mount hdd's i got an 16 TB HDD when i mount it to windows it only shows me like 2 TB help me out
You need to set it to GPT and then it will show it's full space
Oh thank you bro
I have an RTX 3060 12GB and installed latest geforce driver. Followed instructions to add plot manager, chia CLI, etc. The plot manager runs compressed CPU plots no problem. It starts GPU, assigns a plot, then stops after 4 seconds with process exited. Seems like some link to the GPU isn't happening. No idea why.
how much RAM do you have?
@@DigitalSpaceport 16GB. I figured that is the problem. Need like 64 or more, right? Is there a way to set RAM on the NVMe plotting disk virtually? There has to be an easier way for hobbiests. BTW, won't run in Ubuntu either. There has to be an easier way for casual users. TY
@@user-et4jk6ig1x You can also CPU plot at any compression level, even C8. That or more ram + GPU plotting. The less and less ram you use for GPU plotting, the slower the plotting gets until your essentially better off running CPU plotting. There is no shortcut to speed since this is essentially high performance compute and does need additional resources to produce amazing results like a 3 minute plot.
@@DigitalSpaceport TY! I'll spool up CPU C8 then.
Been shopping Z440 server 128GB Ram. Seems like a good plan, yes? Its a hobby 🙂
hi i watched your videos and im interested in your poltting chia method,so i have few questions to ask you hope you reply to me
very goog！
Just bought an evergreen miner pro system... But in the future I want to add a lot more Hard drives, and do them in my own tower.... However, I am LOST when it comes to plotting. Do you or do you know of someone that Sells a basic computer that is set-up to do the plotting for me?
I am doing an Ubuntu Chia Plotter build guide on the HP Z440 right now and will have that video out in a day or 2. In the meantime here is a the parts list. digitalspaceport.com/chia-gpu-plotting-workstation-guide-hp-z440/ DIY your systems and check local places like FB and CL marketplace is solid advice to lower your TCO for a chia farm. The GPU you get should be a 3060 to plot and farm for most folks at many sizes. Welcome to the channel.
@@DigitalSpaceport you’re awesome! Thank you.
@@DigitalSpaceport Hello, I see that in that link you indicate that in order to farm the new compressed Plots you have to use a Tesla P4 type GPU. Does that mean all the Harvesters currently Farming Chia have to be upgraded with a GPU so they can read the new compressed Plots?
where whould i find the spread sheet you use to calculate.

@@DigitalSpaceport Thank you for this i can see Want to CHECK YOUR OWN STATS? Click File...copy above but i'm not sure what file to copy.
Can i use 2x rtx 3060 ti as a gpu plotter & farming?..it is quite difficult to get tesla P4
You can use a 3060(non ti) for both at C8 for GH but the 3060TI does not have enough VRAM to do both at the same time. 12GB vs 8GB. You can't plot and farm at the same time on a P4 either, it's just 8GB also.
@@DigitalSpaceport can your digitalspace port shop, ship overseas?..ship to Indonesia, i mean.
I can but the shipping cost is very high. I do not know if there is a VAT or similar tax either but I cannot collect that so you would need to deal with local tax authority on pickup.
Stuck.. I can’t right click to open in power shell. I open power shell independently then copy/paste, space./chia, no space./chia and it doesn’t load… have been trying for awhile, lost
.\ I think is what you want with no space
Still not convinced if it´s worth the whole move... what is gained in the amount of additional plots is at the cost of a higher energy consumption in the farming... the more the plots (higher compression), the more the electricity consumption in the continuous decompression..
Solar power offset
Can I use the same gpu for decompression
I have not confirmed this specifically but a 12GB card might work for both farming and plotting at the same time. I think it's not a bad idea to get a farming GPU like a P4 early.
@@DigitalSpaceport so a 3090 will work
Cuz I just built one with a 3090 and a 1660 super
Tesla M40 12GB and Fusion F80: 12min c7 GPU Temp @72C just relying on server fans. GPU power draw via HWinfo:158watts
Just asking, did you only use the server fans to keep the M40 GPU temperature down, or did you use some kind of adapter?
@@emile2173 just the server with cooling set to Optimal Profile in the BIOS
@@whoyouwon that's awesome!!
On the discord I have seen that the Gigahorse dev fee is 3% but in reality there are people saying that the 0.25 xch is paid to the dev.
Are you able to clarify how the dev fee is taken on gigahorse?
1 out of every 8 block rewards from a plotNFT is sent to his address. That works out to 3.125%
Is it possible to solo with GPU-compressed plots?
Yes it is
@@DigitalSpaceport Thanks for the reply. But there is no official client to farm solo with GPU-compressed plots. Is there any 3rd party client you would recommend? Thanks.
Yeah there is not an official client to do any farming with compressed plots yet. Gigahorse does allow you to solo or pool your plotNFT.
I have AMD RX580 8GB GPU this is good for ploting or not tell me
Get Nvidia. It's no hassle and "just works"
Yes RX580 works fine. 6000 series has a broken driver. AMD has been asked to fix.
Hi,
How many hd per GPU can I connect for farming ?
It's a calculation based on GPU used to farm which scales to a specific size farm. However many hard drives are needed to scale to that size is irrelevant (but obviously larger density is lower wattage is better long term)
this only works in windows 11?
Nope would work win 10 also
i FINNALY GOT THIS TO WORK THNAKS FOR YOUR HARD WORK!
You are getting closer to providing content most people can use. The value of the HP z440 workstation is decent and booting using a local monitor is perfect. That being said the fancy expensive high speed network is not necessary along with the 25 bay 100lb jet engine screaming JBOD for plotting. There are a lot lighter, cheaper, and quiet ways to send files to HDDs using SAS. You can use a SFF-8088 to 4 SATA 7Pin Female cable to connect to bare drives with SATA power from PSU. If people want a case with cooling they can buy a cheap 4 bay HDD retail enclosure. In fact that MB might have built in SATA connections you could plug straight to an external enclosure to make the drives easy to move in and out to put into harvester.
from 1500 to 27, and from 27 to 0, very blessing outcome
H8r gonna h8
it says giganode does not exist
Bladebit Guide?
I'm hearing they will have farming in alpha soon for testing and will have guide out when that's available. When they initially said they would be releasing them at the same time that made more sense then the staggered releases. Need to make sure it's a 100% farmable solution before I do a video on it
@@DigitalSpaceport Yeah man for sure. I'm assuming since Bladebit is their tech those plots will be supported officially? I'd love to get started but man I really don't want to have to turn around and replot for officially supported plots.
First!
