If I had free miner
I will make better review
Not if you received it 9 hours ago and had 6 hours of testing to run Wink

Great review, thanks Dogie.

Quick question (not sure if it has been mentioned elsewhere): When you say it's loud, how loud are we talking? I've got 2 AntMiner S1s, and at 1 meter it measures at ~61-62dB (using Android's 'Sound Meter' application, which seems fairly reliable). Room temp is about 20C or so right now.

Find the IP assigned to the miner from your router, or with a network sweeping application.

We going to release together with the 1st units shipment the Plug&Mine cloud mechanism to public, allowing to easily locate the units LAN address, making the whole set-up process even faster.

You can see how it will work in the product movie (starting 2:40):

0a) What to Expect (top)
The Hammer ASIC is designed by SpondooliesTech (ST) and manufactured by TMSC in Israel. The SP10 contains 192 Hammer ASICs arranged into two large
hashing boards. Hash rates vary between 1.4 and 1.5TH depending on ambient temperature, and power consumption between 1.1 and 1.3KW from the wall.
Each contains a power supply, controller and integrated cooling system - all in a 1.25U case. Specifications are as follows:

Process Node- 40 nm
Package Type- QFN64 8 mm x 8 mm
I/O- Serial protocol with clk, datain and dataout
Rated Hash Rate- 7.5 GHash/s per chip, ~1.4TH overall
Rated Voltage- 0.63 V stock, 0.6 V – 0.8 V
Power.Consumption- ~1100-1200W

 

      


0b) What You Need (top)
You will a few accessories to get started.

1) Powering (top)
SP10s come with a Emerson DS1050 server PSU with a 34 pin output. This means you can NOT replace it with a conventional PSU. It features:


      
 
      
 
      


2) Cooling (top)
ASIC cooling requirements are usually limited to being either "sufficient", and/or "quiet". This is slightly different in the SP10 due to its thin form factor.
Temperatures inside the unit determines hash rate so minimising ASIC temperatures are key to maximising returns. Two full length heatsinks are cooled by
6x40mm YS Tech Xtreme FD0124028EBP 40mm fans. They are powered by the controller board and specifications are below.

Dimensions (mm)- 40x40x25
Max RPM- 9000
RPM.Range.(firmware)- 20-80%

A sealed tunnel is serviced by negative pressure currents, which is used to intake, cool the heatsinks and exhaust in one uninterrupted continuous sweep. At
stock, the fans run at ~70%, in turbo ~80% and in quiet mode 40%. Noise levels are extortionate at anything but quiet, in part due to the PSU's fan being
fixed on at its max RPM. This is an error in the power supply, which is designed to run at up to 50C ambient and so is exceptionally overcooled. It is noted that
the bottom of the case can get quite warm warm, and so side mounting is recommended to increase cooling and prevent damage to any wooden flooring.

      




3) Case (top)
The SP10's case is 1.25U thick (55mm) and is designed to be rack-mountable in a 19" wide rack (482.6mm), or stacked. The boards were designed with the
case in mind and the case was designed with the boards in mind. Harmony ensued. Mining modules are well protected and there is no room for potentially lose
components to move during shipping. The unit is sealed against pets (apart from the 40mm PSU fan, for a grill can be added), although noise levels and
surface temperatures mean the two should still be kept apart.

Shipped weight of a SP10 is 14kg, dimensions of the shipping box are 660 x 550 x 130mm. External dimensions of the case are 475* x 440 x 54.7mm
(+100mm for cabling). They are shipped with 6-32 (diameter) 3/8" (thread) screws for 19" racking mounting.

      


4) Configuration (top)
Configuration is extremely simple (and may get simpler as the software is developed).

  • Plug in an ethernet cable from the SP10 to your router.
  • Plug in a power cable from the mains to your PSU. The unit will auto turn on.
  • Navigate to your router and find the list of devices.
  • Using a browser, navigate to the IP assigned to the SP10 by your router.
  • Login using "admin" as the username and password.
  • Navigate to "Pools", enter miner information as below and click save.
  • Navigate to "Settings" and change clock mode as desired.
