  @BeholdMiNuggets Eh, I keep all my builds in simple text files so I mostly just copied and pasted from those and didn't bother with a picker list. Going E-ATX for a Burst miner is certainly ambitious, but it's also probably overkill. Once you get into high-end workstation or server builds, you start to run into large diminishing returns for your investment (unless you already have the hardware, plan to use it for other things, etc). Burst mining is meant to run on low-end machines and not draw a lot of power or resources, so I would advocate building multiple cheaper machines with normal ATX hardware rather than one monster machine. Besides inherently giving you more redundancy should a machine fail, there's also a limited number of add-on cards and devices you can connect to any given machine before things start bottlenecking or you just run out of IRQs, even if you still have slots or ports left on your mobo. Once you've stacked about 100TBs on one machine and you want more, it's probably going to be cheaper and easier just to build a second machine.

  It seems to me I'll be getting the greens. Just confirmed that the drives indeed manufactured 2015. So this means faster ROI and earlier profit. Thanks a lot @Gibsalot!

  i wrote a tutorial about rejuvenation it increases throughput of any written drive. Just used it on my MyBook 8TB External. Although marginal, it increased the drives gain and i got a slightly faster throughput. Also, I deliberately did away with NTFS for exfat and transferred its plot from an internal pc drive using a 3rd party copying application to prevent fragmentation by using a large memory buffer adjustable in the app. NTFS can be a bottleneck on external disks is why exfat was invented. A fusebundle is available for linux to read them too.

  @newsense2004 It's not cheaper if they all fail a year from now and you have to buy new ones. Also, 2 year warranty on the backup plus hubs, vs 1 year warranty on the regular expansions... minus two extra ports.

  @xaocs Not sure if it could be done but https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/#/contracts if you could set it up as a Burst mining contract or similar and get it listed above such that it had the shortest payback period, then it would turn heads and do wonders for Burst and your asset at the same time. You have the technical know how and contacts to pull it off, plus the investors would be buying in Bitcoin, so the Burst price would not be affected by your setup costs.

  the onboard GPU of the motherboard : H81 Pro BTC. it says it has a intel HD graphics onboard, I'm not sure which one, I think 4400/4600. And yes both of these, internal harddrives by sataIII, external harddrives by usb 3.0

  @Burstde I run 2 internal 8tb drives in my thermaltake duet no problem. Infact can easily blow the dust off with my leaf blower too.

  @rds well like i said, its an i7 920, used parts i had lying around etc... I'm assuming since you said laptop, you're running high capacity drives off USB. I have 15 drives in the 3-4TB range (usually refurb'd datacenter HGST), so i'm guessing 120-150w from drives and 90w from processor/mobo. 200w seems very "eco" to me... i'm running the whole rig for the power consumption of 1 current generation crypto mining GPU.

  @Focus Definitely, and if I ever want even better read speeds with more cards, I can simply spread them out over more computers.

  @Amoulier If you're doing serious video editing, then you probably want to be on Intel's x99 platform: "For professional Premiere Pro users, we would highly recommend considering one of the "High-End" Core i7 CPUs like the i7 6850K, i7 6900K, or the i7 6950X instead of a more standard quad core CPU" https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/Adobe-Premiere-Pro-CC-2015-3-CPU-Comparison-849/ The problem is it looks like Intel will be moving to socket 2066 when they release Skylake-X and/or Kaby Lake-X, which should be soon, so wait for those to drop first if you can: http://wccftech.com/intel-skylake-x-kaby-lake-x-q2-2017-roadmap-leak/ There's also AMD's new Ryzen chips to consider, which should also be releasing soon. If you can hold off on building a new rig for a month or two, then you should have a lot more and better options to choose from. Also, super fast NVMe drives like the Samsung 960 Evo are really nice for video editing. They even make motherboards where you can put them in RAID.

  @rnahlawi said in Disaster Enclosures: @luxe Prefer SATA, USB hubs fail fast Was thinking of this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ESFEI2E/ref=twister_B016EMCDYI?_encoding=UTF8&th=1 https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816124070&nm_mc=TEMC-RMA-Approvel&cm_mmc=TEMC-RMA-Approvel--Content--text-_- Same card but $5 more but .99 cent shipping. Great card, I use one with helium drives no errors, 8tb and 10tb drives
