Hey its been my 3 week but in new month just after 2 week … so i just monitor my network … and its seems Storj storing file … so almost 12TB on thi month … how much i can expected end of the month and payment for only HDD space usage if its cross 100TB per month ? [storj-speed]

[image] How does "Disk Space Used This Month" work? FAQ GB * h, not the GB / h, the difference is huge. The total amount of GBh will be divided on hours in month to get an amount of data used for the whole month.

[image] AGu: I mean if storj separates all web to /24 subnets, then it could be only ~17 mln. separated nodes “Only” 17 million? There are about 6000 right now.

[image] AGu: I mean if storj separates all web to /24 subnets, then it could be only ~17 mln. separated nodes (2^24). If there is somehow came to be a node in every publicly routeable /24 subnet with 1TB of capacity, the Storj network would be sitting at 17EB of capacity. I think that is a pr…

Can i ask what HDD model you bought? [image] BrightSilence: My node is 10TB as well, 1000/500mbit. Though connection speed hardly matters. I’ve been running this node for over a year now though. Just give it some time. I already bought a 12TB HDD with my earnings, so it’s paid for itself, the r…

That purchase was 2 HDD’s ago by now. And I actually didn’t spend my tokens, but could have paid for it with my tokens at the time. I’ve since found a store that accepts bitcoin and bought 2x 16TB by actually converting my tokens to bitcoin and buying them. So those 2 are what I was actually able to…

[image] BrightSilence: Seagate Exos X16 ST16000NM001G How does this unit perform noise-wise?

Hard to tell, since there are 14 other HDD’s spinning nearby. I didn’t notice it being any worse than the others, but it is an enterprise HDD. They won’t be optimized for low noise.

[image] BrightSilence: but it is an enterprise HDD. They won’t be optimized for low noise. Sure that, but from what I’ve read the helium filled drives tend to be reasonably unannoying. I was thinking about replacing my Exos E in advance, before it gets too full :wink: But said Exos E is the…

I don’t have any Exos E to compare it to. What I can say is that it seems to be about similar to the Ironwolfs I’ve bought in recent years. And a whole lot better than the ST8000VN0002, which is a Seagate NAS prior to the Ironwolf series. That must have been the noisiest one I’ve ever had. It has an…

Thanks. I don’t sleep near the node with the Exos E ether :wink: I’ve only heard 1TB IronWolves with should feature way less platters and therefore aren’t the best comparison to high capacity drives…

[image] donald.m.motsinger: “Only” 17 million? There are about 6000 right now. 6 000 in different subnets? If I understand correctly, then It could be 6 000 or less. For ex. 600 nodes. Or even 60 nodes. Because nobody knows if they have any “neighbors” in their subnet. That’s why I wonder if …

How much can I earn with a 1GBit connection?
