Welcome to NoSSD Chia Pool official thread!

▸▸▸ https://nossd.com ◂◂◂

Features:

1. No SSD needed

You only need HDDs to generate and store your plots.
More HDDs you have - less time is required to make a plot:

3 HDD: 30-80 minutes
2 HDD: 40-100 minutes
1 HDD: 1-4 hours

Fast plotting without SSD is a reality now!

2. 20-30% more reward with new compressed plot format

Our plots are 16-23% smaller than standard plots, therefore generate 20-30% more reward for the same disk space.

Standard plot size: 101.3 GiB
Our plot size: 78.1 - 84.5 GiB

You can choose compression level before plotting.
Smaller plots require more CPU work during mining for decompression.

Our pool supports delegated plotting. One person can make plots for another without being able to mine on them.

All necessary software (plotter, miner, etc) is embedded in our client program and all required operations are done automatically.
Basically, you will only need to specify directories for plots and Chia address for reward.
Both Windows and Linux operating systems are supported.

Q: How much free space on HDDs is required to mine on your pool?

A: At least 225GiB for temporary files plus few hundreds GiB for plots.

Q: My plots are larger than you specified.

A: Our plotter generates sparse plots first. They are suitable for mining too, but 13% larger than final ones.
After filling all directories with sparse plots, it will start to finalize them. This process takes 10-30 minutes for each plot.

Q: What about mining fee?

A: Current mining fee is 0.5%. Later, standard mining fee will be 3.5%.

Q: My Internet connection is ok, but your client still can't connect to the server.

A: Check your system time. The client requires correct system time during mining.
If time deviation is more than a minute, the client will be completely unable to communicate with the server.
