Perhaps it would be an idea to share the settings you use for Plotman per rig?

Also you didn’t list the specific NVME drive models.

I have pny 2 tb each and 2x 1 tb in both i9 system
and my ryzen with 2 1tb each of wd 550 and 2 Samsung 970x2 tb
I will send a screen shot shortly of the file
Thank you everyone for your help


This is my ryzen 9

So your CPU has 24 threads, but you run 6 jobs in phase 1 with 12 threads each?

I believe you can oversubscribe a bit, this seems a bit too much imho. Also according to other members such amount of threads have no added value. I would try with 4 threads first to see if that works better.

I thought the threads is how many we dedicate to the first phase
So having more in phase one I added more threads
So as I understand the thread setting is per plot not for everything in phase one

The EXACT SSD models are essential - the following articles explains why (for Sabrent Rocket Q i know but it might be the same problem)

I have some SSD that are WORSE than HDD for plotting
