I'm a neophyte to this hobby but am a quick learner. Need a bit of help please. I bought two used S3+'s and both of them have all of the ASICs on chain one disabled. Is this normal for this model, I don't think so. Thoughts?
No it is not normal. Did you power both blades? All 4 PCI-e connector?
Since both of them are having the same problem, my best guess if you plugged only 2 PCI-e of one board and the 2 PCI-e of the other boards unplugged.
That fixed it on both units, thank you for taking your time to respond to my post.
I plugged in all four 6-pin connectors and all ASICs were happy. Weird, I thought you were supposed to be able to just plug in two per S3 (if not overclocking) but whatever works.
