slow progress
 

I would like to say that my progress in the range, which I reserved will be very slow. I lost one SSD drive few days ago, which kept the logs for the work done. I will not mind if someone finishes the range before me, because I do not want to slow down the project. I have the aim of checking those numbers, but it will be slow. I am sorry if I caused any problems, but I am sorry for my SSD too :-).

bloodIce, I'm sorry to hear about your SSD crash. I hope that you got some replacement and your machine is running well now.

Don't worry if you are making only a slow progress. We don't have any fixed expiry dates up to which a range has to be completed. Especially if you're not running your machine(s) all around the clock, a single block may take quite long.
So, if it's done in a week or two - that's pretty fine. If it takes one or two months - that's also no problem. Just keep us informed about your progress perhaps once in a month (also if you decide to abandon your range). Only if there wasn't any status report or life sign after half a year or so, we may decide to reschedule a range.

lost sieve
 

Thanks for the reassurance Thomas. Could you please upload the sieve file for the 2753000-2756000 range, since I lost it with my drive crash. This file will speed the process, since I do not need to test all numbers.

The file is still on the server. I added the link again. See the first post in this thread...

Got it, thank you very much. Now the sieve file is in my dropbox, so you can remove the link again. I need to redo the expos I have done, because I do not have the certificates. However, now I will store all the results in my dropbox folder, so there will be no more steps backwards. Sorry for the delay, I am starting on full speed now.

Finally, the range 2753-2756 is complete, sorry for the delay. There are no primes, which is not really surprising. In the attachment one can see the checksums for each of those expos.
