Sorry, but I can't believe this story... it's clear from the images that the dust is concentrated on the area where the fan blows through the heatsinks... to suggest that it's from standing on the shelf smells of distraction to me, they're not even that old! It should be obvious to most people that this miner was used for a very long time and the fact that the fan was broken adds to the evidence...







those pics indicate months of use, and they did say units are new and only seen days of use.  we should all support the member as right is right.  hopefully Bitmain takes care of the issure, which i think they will but I also thing they might not if people are so indifferent.  I dont want a used machine, and no one wants a heavily used machine which might die too soon...

the process is known as 'aging', don't get it confused with 'burn-in'  Smiley most mining rig sold from china are exactly like this. even tiny reseller agent have 20-30 unit on shelves before shipping. any consumer protection in this industry is illuison it is still wild-west.. but you would of thought they should of quickly dust at least

and sorry you cannot change this, consider it a luxury in current times to receive working miner which is not pre-order, and will generate you more btc than paid

so the advantage of one worker per miner is pretty much only because of spotting problems?  And is it better to have both my miners in the same pool or different pools?

and is anyone dedicating their miners to work on alt coins,  then converting to bitcoins
considering difficulty of bitcoin, i thought that might be the best thing but no one here seems to be doing that.  Would appreciate the advise

my orders made on the 22nd (early in the morning and in afternoon -US Pacific time) were shipped on the 24th separately and have taken different routs, their cumming at me from both sides and Im gonna meet them in the middle!  Both scheduled for delivery end of day today 27th.  Fingers crossed, and no tracking info in post so I dont jinx myself  Wink

Buying PSU's was a real pain (i know i could have gone with cheaper server psu, but i guess i can sell these later for maybe half their value)
 Ended up ordering 2 750W psu's (hopefully they will be enough for 3 ants on modest oc, someone had confirmed they were doing same)
  Corsair TX-750W 80 Plus Bronze $80
  Rosewill CAPSTONE 750W 80 Plus Gold $100

Ive spent the last few days coming through the miner setup threads, have even made serious notes one the types of problems people have experienced, their solutions, all marked with reference pages, been preppin lol.

I need some advise.  Should I create one worker for both miners or different worker for each?  

If im not mistaking both miners on the same worker, this means the work done by each machine will be combined  into one result under that same miner in that pool, and therefore produce better results  ??   Should I point each miner at a different pool, or same pool.



Plus all workers add up in total to your user name if you point them all to the same Pool.

I would create a worker for every miner you have
that way if a miner is not working for can find out faster.

It is easier for you to spot any issues if you make one worker per machine.
