Frequently Asked Questions

Will I have to create plots multiple times? No, the plotting process is a one-time task, you decide when you want to generate the plots.

Is there a size limit for making plots? No, you can create plots with any size, it all depends on your hard drive.

Can I create plots with different sizes? Yes, you can create different plots with the size you want

How many plot files per hard drive do you recommend being created? You can create the number of plot files per hard drive that you want, it is recommended that “1 plot file be generated for each hard drive”

Can I create plots using my GPU? Yes you can, using the software called Turboplotter. Please like the video and comment down below if you want tutorials about learning to use turboplotter.

Does the plotting process take too much time? All depends on your computer specifications. The more CPU cores you assign for plotting, the more likely you are to reduce plotting time.

Why do my plots take a long time to generate? If you have a SMR hard drive (which can be very slow when creating plots). It is recommended that you use an SSD or M.2 for the cache. That way your plot time will be reduced.

Is it better to mine SIGNA with SSD or HDD? There is no real advantage to scanning faster or across more drives, using SSDs or anything like that.
