Yea I don't understand the "soon" thing either, haha. I run BraiinsOS on all of my S9's, achieving 70W/Th, and they have been saying ever since the 17 series came out that they would have a firmware for it, "soon." Still nothing... That's too bad about the S17e's just not having firmware available. I am a fan of under volting, especially now since the having, and no positive Bitcoin price action. Hopefully somebody comes out with one soon. I tried Hiveon firmware, by HiveOS. Not sure if you or anyone has had any experience with that one or not. It's really confusing, and you have to manage the miners from a different website, instead of just typing in the IP address and managing from there. I am getting worse efficiency than with Bitmain's stock firmware with Hiveon, so probably just go back to stock for now. Thanks for your help and info!

I am not really sure why you quoted mikey and James there but okay...

I am also one of users of asic.to (Vnish firmware) and I also own a couple of different units including one S17e and I looked almost everywhere for firmware for S17e and couldn't find a legit one with actual rep that can be trusted.

Taserz and Vnish (both of them are under Asic.to) are working on it and their ETA for it is "soon" (not to confuse with actual "soon" which is adverb with a meaning: "in or after a short time" as their "soon" can mean months  Smiley ). I really hope they make it as soon as possible as these hot times are sometimes even overheating one of my chips and causing whole unit to go to safe mode (stop mining on all 3 hashboards) and I'd like to avoid that.

Hey guys, I happen to have 6 of the S17e's, had them for about 6 months now... Does anyone know if there is a custom firmware available for these yet? I am using Asic.to for my T17's and have been able to achieve a 45W/Th at 42Th/s. Using only 1850W, as opposed to the stock 2275W it was using. Pretty darn good, and really helping out profitably. Asic.to does not currently offer firmware for the S17e's so I was curious if there is one available to under volt. Thanks for any help or insight!

Be nice to have some competitive gear back under de minimis. Too bad the quality isn't there on this though.

the s17pro. we have 17 of them. I wish it was the only gear we have it is far better then any of the other gear.

I was checking prices today and the s17e is still at 799.

It was at 799 when coins were at 9700.
It is at 799 and coins are at 8700.

Now is not the time to buy this gear.

only thing I dont like about that is not shipping till July

Well, that and the fact that it's an (E) version, the chips they use on any E version are usually the lowest quality overclocked, they get hot and fail faster than the rest, despite my good experience "so far" with the T17E, reading and hearing from miners who own a dozen of the 17 series, almost all of them agree that the T17e is the worst gear with the highest failure/RMA rate, most commonly heatsinks/chips fall off the hashboard, I have almost reached to the conclusion that only the S17 pro version is actually worth buying, so S17e shipping (possibly) by end of July is a no for me, but good luck to those who will buy it.

The s17e has dropped to 799 under the de minimus for USA buyers.

Maybe I buy it.

Bitmain just put S17e back to sale.

S17e specs:

Reference Power Usage (Min): 2700W
Power Efficiency (@25℃): 45 W/TH (but not at 60 TH/s if I understand correctly - should be around 50W/TH in reality)

Shipping Date: 1-30 June 2020
Price: $896 (before VAT, shipping and any other expenses)

Has anyone tried new firmware from Bitmain? Antminer-S17e-user-OM-202001131007-sig_5156.tar.gz

I like my S17e unit which is giving me stable 67 TH/s instead of marketed 64TH/s. I wouldn't like to lose those few extra TH/s, so has anyone update to newest firmware? If so, what is your experience?

I am mostly intereste due to this:

2. Enhance the miner stability in scenarios that beyond the normal operating temperature range.

However, if I ever choose to go with custom firmware I think that this will be harder with newest firmware due to this:

3. Enhance  anti-virus capability with  new security mechanism.

What do you think @taserz?

I just received notification that my S17E (60ths, not 64ths) is on its way!

I order 2 plugs from Amazon 12ft NEMA 6-20P to IEC C13 Power Cable - 14AWG SJT (250V 15A)

Can someone confirm that  each of the receptacles on the antminer  require 220v?
thanks & happy holidays!

so this is like a merry christmas 🎁 to you. nice 👍

I am still waiting for news on my t17+ it is now 6 days late.

I kind of want to get to get to the point my ordering process is finished with them.

As of now

I await a s17pro which i got for about 380 after credits.

I await the t17+. which is late they will owe me a credit for price adjustment and a credit for being late.

If could be about 400-500 which would mean I would buy a t17 again.

I would really like to have a clear slate by my birthday 🎂 which is Jan 27th.

Should be good now.... in short....
hey,we cant deliver 17e 64, how bout a 60.
I said no. But id like a 17+.
Oh, sorry, we cant do that.
I said, that's fine, cancel the order if you cant deliver the requested product and credit my acct.
Um, ok. Place your order and we'll xfer the money from this order.

So I placed an order for a 17+, sent them the order ID #, and asked they apply credit from this order, and finish the difference with credit already in the acct.

This is the last thing I sent:
   Order ID: 001201xxxxxx.   Payment Method:USD
   is the new order. USD wire was selected.

Please cancel order ID 001201910xxxxx and apply credit towards the new order. Additional credit available in my acct should be used to complete the order.



Edit: 12/26.   Email received.  Entire S17+ order paid with credit from the cancelled s17e order and additional acct credit

Then, can you cancel this order, since you cannot supply the correct item. Apply the dollar value to credit. And I will place future orders.
