Hey guys and gals!  I'm replacing my S2 with AM gear next week, and so I have 10 good S2 cards available for sale to anyone who needs a spare.  I've got three that don't have working temp sensors and seven that do.  All boards hash at full speed, and none of the cards have been overclocked.

I'm going to be using the S2 case to create a FrankenPrisma, so I only have the cards available.  I suppose the controller board is available too, although I had problems with this unit so there may be issues with the controller or the backplane.  Let me know if you want any of those pieces and you can pay me after you verify they work!

I'm holding onto the PSU because I'm crazy.

tl;dr: if you need a spare S2 hashing card, I have ten available that are known to be in good working order! Drop me a PM and we'll work out a price!

Cheers.

Are you still looking to sell these?

The image file and the free software to write the image to the MicroSD card is located at https://bitmaintech.com/support.htm?pid=00720140413044945482bs4xshkh072D

The software to write directly to the MicroSD card is

What is recommended volume of the SD card to use with S2?

gl with those Prisma's...you are going to need it  Tongue

I know some people have been having problems, but mine have been ticking away since I fired them up.  They sit in a DC, though, so maybe the 220 and < 64 degrees keeps things sane.  Who knows.  I'm sure I'll break something trying to cram them into the S2 case.

In reality, I should probably just build a rack-mountable solution myself, but using the S2 case sounds ... fun?

I created a franken S1 rig using my old Avalon Gen 1 case!
Awesome!  You have pics?

Do I unzip the tar file first or just flash the gz image as is?

As is  Wink

Working good so far.  Very slight improvement.  Will changing the queue affect pools other than p2pool?

If no one could overclock S2 on new firmware, then... Why should we upgrade the firmware? Only because of security issues?..

Looks like my flash card got corrupted when the power went out recently. Won't reboot. This happened once before but it was a long time ago so I don't remember the procedure to recover. Thanks for any help!


use a class 10 card when reimaging. It will survive power blips that often crap out the class 4 cards

Where can I get a working image?
