I have a question : I bought a GPU mining rig recently, which I will probably receive before Friday, and I'd like to add something like at least  8 To of HDD if possible.

Two questions come in my mind : what kind of return could I get from this and what load would it put on the CPU ? Is there a profit calculator out there ?

Since this is intended to mine GPU altcoins, it will be something really cheap, like a Celeron G1820. Do you think it will be able to handle the mining of the GPUs and of the HDDs ?

How many HDD so you think I can put on my motherboard (an ASRock Pro BTC) ?

I know that it is a lot of question, but I need it to be solved if you want that I join the community for real Wink !

Use Luxe's JMiner and you'll be able to happily mine GPU coins and burst - I have a couple of miners doing 30TB of burst and Eth with no issue.

Did you do anything special to get them running well together?
On my rig jminer runs very slowly alongside eth miner. On its own jminer runs in -30 seconds with eth miner running its like 160s. Did you do anything to get them to run well together?


Lower the priority of the Eth miner - it'll still impact JMoner, but it's minimal instead of the major impact at default priorities.
