setup:
Asus Z590M plus
Intel 10850k
DDR4 3200 64GBram
C: Lexar 250GB ssd (os win 10 pro not registered)
temp drives:
D: WD Black 2TB NVME
E: Crucial P1 2TB NVME (x2 Striped)
F: Samsung 870 Evo ssd (x2 striped)
using SWAR Plot Manager
Still trying to figure out best settings for 3 jobs with this setup

I think you can set the max in phase one to “2” perhaps even “3” but you have to test that.
3 x 2 parallel with 4 threads staggered should be no problem for your CPU.
update changed settings, now I am getting like 27 plots a day
name: WD Black

Im getting 29-30 plots/day with a very similar setup:
Intel 10850k
DDR4 3200 64GBram
4x 1TB WD Black SN750 NVME RAID-0
Windows 10 + SWAR manager
config
Nice guys! I’m impressed, 30 a day, sweet!
update using mad max gui / changed drive setup
10850K (4.8 all cores)
64 GB ram (16x4) at 3200MHZ
Samsung Evo Plus 1 TB NVME (x2)
madmax gui settings:
threads 18 (20 is slower, 14 and below is slower)
-U buckets 512
-V buckets 256
it alternates between temp1 and temp 2 drives
Final plot writes to an old samsung SSD evo and i robcopy it from that automatically to my farmer drives
