I just noticed something, perhaps this is obvious and just me who don't understand how this works. I have plots on three machines (53 Tb + 10 Tb + 12 Tb). All plots are generated for the same account. Each machine runs a miner and all three miners are pointed at burst.ninja, but in the pool, I only see 53 Tb as ~capacity. Are the other two machines not mining, or is it just the pool which does not show the other two, but they are still being used?

Is there a better way to set this up? The computers (win 7) are physically in different locations so it is not trivial to share drives between them. I could mine with one account for each machine (just set up three burst accounts) but that means I have to replot 22 Tb of plots, which I hope I will not have to do ....

Thx

Just to follow up on this. I switched my machines to solo mining, exactly one on week ago. I have since then on 72.2 Tb of non overlapping plots (calculated that exactly) and mined 51'898 BURST during this week. According to the mining calculator at

http://burstcoin.biz/calculator

this should have given me 78'734 Burst meaning that either I am unlucky (likely I guess, fits with other aspects of life :-)), the calculator is off (?) or there is something wrong with my set up (could my drives be to slow, or my ISP connection?). The drives are mainly scrap that I found, most are mounted in random, old, USB2 cases, some directly to SATA ports and some in old NAS cases (All with gigabit connections, hooked up to a good HP switch, so that should no be the a bottleneck). My ISP is 8 Mbit down 1 Mbit up.

It still pays better then last week of pool mining, so I let it go for another week to see if my luck changes. Any thoughts on if my setup could be too slow is really appreciated.
