I've been following Burst since 2014, but always had trouble understanding it with Linux and multiple drives.
I have a main SSD OS drive I don't want to mine on, then a platter 2TB HD(going to add more)
I have a 4770K for the processor and 750Ti for the GPU. What is the best method you think of going about all this?
I assume I should pool mine? How long does it take to make a 2TB Plot on CPU vs GPU.
What about 50TB?
My suggestion is to check out my video in my signature and on the main OP, it will explain how to use the GUI for Windows.
This is BY FAR the easiest way to get started mining BURST, thanks to daWallet, our awesome developer of that project!
This, is in my opinion, what has made BURST something that anyone can do now, when, as you say, it may not have been that straightforward at first. The reason for this, I think, is that it is not the same as any other coin... But, this is also what makes it so great! It's unique! It's amazing!
So yea, definitely give the GUI a shot, the link was made when the initial version was released, but the installation process shouldn't be any different, and though the sound on the video sucks, it should still be relatively identical to the way things are done in the new version.
I will soon make new tutorials on how to use all of the easy to use components available in the network now. I will be posting links in my cloud for those, and giving out more free accounts for my beta release. (which also includes the BURST web wallet integrated, but not the fancy password manager that is in the GUI, which I love! and use all the time!) But I think at some point I will talk with daWallet and see about getting the entire GUI put into my cloud.
