Hashcat hashcat potfile

[Hashpup2222]

can a hashcat potfile be toobig, i created a pre computed 1 TB of md5 hash of my wordlist, is this useless to do or will it help me crack faster md5 hash if there is pre hash list.

Hacking won't shorten the time. Use a regular dictionary. This will take up less space on your hard drive.

yes this wasnt a good idea it was a md5.potfile, HASH:PLAIN, it took 3.5 TERABYTES, but i want to know how hashes.com, crackstation, use there hashlookup table, they must had a prehash file for refrence.

And it is worth adding that by using rules you will certainly crack more hashes than by searching in the generated potfile from a dictionary.
