Well, that's exactly what I meant when saying "we'll run into maximum disk write speed limit pretty quickly", since the maximum write speed is for the whole drive, so when writing to multiple partitions simultaneously, you'll be limited by 'max_write_speed/number_of_partitions' at best. The more partitions you write at once, the bigger penalty you'll have. If we assume the average max write speed of around 100-150 MB/sec, then it'll be 50-75 MB/sec at most when writing to 2 partitions simultaneously. I'm using 7970 cards right now, and getting 15-16 k per minute, that's what, 60-65 MB/sec.. It might actually make sense to divide each drive in 2 partitions and use 1 GPU per partition simultaneously. Would be 1.5-2x times faster to fill one drive with 2 partitions and 2 gpus, rather than to use 1 gpu for plotting on 1 big partition.

Thanks. So does this mean that basically the only way to use multiple GPUs in one rig efficiently (= simultaneously) is to build plots on multiple HDDs at the same time with 1 gpu per 1 HDD? Although I suppose it's possible to divide 1 HDD into several partitions and fill each partition of the same disk simultaneously, assigning 1 gpu per partition? If that is possible, then we'll run into maximum disk write speed limit pretty quickly, cause ordinary HDDs won't like it when huge chunks of data are written to different partitions at the same time..

Anyone had a problem like this?



Trying to mine at http://burst-pool2.cryptoport.io with pool miner V1, but only getting these messages..

What parameters do you use and what are your cards clocks? And what drivers? I've got only 16k with my Giga 7970 @ 975/1500, using 3072, 128 and 8160.

Aww, no one gave me + trust for overseeing the BURST multipool fund =(

could be a delayed payment, i got 1k two days ago(two time, not in a row like him), maybe his delayed was just bigger
