The network difficulty is spiking by 5-8% per day at the moment, so ground floor seems to be well behind us. On the plus side, pools will likely be spinning up in a month or less so hopefully the plotting effort doesn't go to waste (since it puts stress on the SSDs). Once fully plotted, I can just take the drive and shove it in my NAS and have the low power/cpu plotting software run for the next 10 years and maybe scrape a few coins.

Is this your first mining operation? How do you decide what coins to mine? I'm interested in mining but haven't known anybody actually doing it.
