I know that this is a bit late but I just wanted to congratulate the Burst community. This is regarding the increase of its price in the past days. I believe it went x3-x5 from its lowest price few days ago. People should be celebrating right now and having parties because of the profit that they got. Crowe and Adam is very happy in their Youtube videos regarding this surge in price. And we should be looking far ahead as this is just the beginning. 

Choose all you can spare it will plot faster. What CPU you got?

Yes I understand. Your CPU has 4 cores and 8 threads (2 for each core) so if you want full speed, and don't plan to use computer for anything else go for 4/8.

btw one more questions. If i start plotting my 5tb's, then its always the best chose to select the max capacity in the gui for one plot? or can you do like 1 plot per terabyte, or this make no sense? Does plot size make any difference anyway?

Or other tips or things i should now before i start? I already know if i start my second drive i offcourse not have to start from 0. the most ovious things i know... :-)

A single large file will mine a little faster than multiple smaller files.

If you're only plotting one PC you don't need to use the advanced settings - as long as you don't change drive letters around it'll automatically pick a non-overlapping start nonce. Using the advanced settings and manually specifying the starting nonce - SN = Last Starting Nonce + Last Number of Nonces.

for XPlotter it MUST be NTFS - FAT32 or exFAT will not work.

That's a really high value for RAM that Xplotter is using. AFAIK without being over-ridden, it'll never be higher than 50% of total system RAM, your's is over 80%. Xplotter can be stopped and restarted to resume the current plot, but you'll need to manually do it - which will involve editing a batch file and manually launching it. If you want to restart let me know and I can give you the steps, or do a TV session and set it up for you.

As I said, I've not used a recent version of the AIO, but you should be able to set ram and threads - set threads to your system total - 1, and RAM to half of what you have

I closed java that was running on the background. I am on 20% now of the 5TB.

but still i would like to discuss some things about plotting.  The cores and threads, are they related to eachother. can you take 1 core and 4 threads or is this a bad idea? Is is better to have 2 core and 4 treads, or 4 cores and 8 treads, or 8 cores and 16 threads.

I would be really helpfull if somebody want to send me a pm with his skype so we can have a small skype session. Offcourse i am willing to give you a tip in btc, eth, burst, ltc, ripple, or ever other coin :-)

I gonna receive 8 x 5TB this week, so i really wanne know if i doing the best performance now to plot. maybe somebody have some tips to speed up the process or tell me what i am doing wrong... I also have teamvieuwer, so its easy to share my screen with you if you want.

Not that its not working now, but i am bit a pefectionist, so i really wanne know everything in detail, i am a bit a computer nerd hah :-)

thanks in advance community!

It takes time, my 2TB disk plotted 3-4 days as far as i remember. And yes threads and cores are related - each 1 physical core got 2 threads, so it's always threads=cores*2.
