Any calculations you do with chia, you should count in the fact that CHIA mining destroys hard drives quickly. The fact that they are trying to market it as an eco friendly solution is just misleading. Also there should be warning labels all over the site saying this:
Techspot: Chia farming can reportedly ruin a 512GB SSD in 40 days

If this is the case then it's not worth it SSD is expensive before you can mine 1 Chia you have already spend hundreds of dollars of SSD, there are a lot of hard drive algo and I never read that until now that they are ruining our hard drive, but with the current market price, which is good it's up to miner if it's worth and can he maintain the cost.
