Anyone looking for a couple bone stock S7's ?

I thought I'd post here to see if anyone could use a couple more S7's before posting them on eBay. I'd prefer not to pay the eBay fees ;-)

I have 1 - S7 B9 and one S7 B11 for sale. I'm asking $425 USD each or $800 USD for the pair.... OR OFFER.
Able to accept BTC, ETH-HF or Peercoin as payment... or if in the USA, a good ol bank cashiers check from a US BANK.(There will be a short hold time to clear the check)
Continental USA SHIPPING INCLUDED!
International Shipping Available but at cost.
Unit(s) will be shipped the day after payment has cleared - Tracking number(s) will be provided.

They come with the original packaging and box!

Both are in good running condition. Always disassembled every couple months and cleaned to keep the operating temps low.

No abnormal noise, no dead chips, no burnt connectors.

They have not been hacked, and only have been overclocked for about a week of run time after the warentee expired to analyze cost vs profit vs risk of failure. It turned out that with my electrical cost, it was not beneficial to OC so for the most of their 1 year of running, they were stock clocked.

They will be shipped with the defaults set and labeled with the batch number.

If interested, either contact me via private message, or contact me via email at big.banana.tech &^%_AT_%^&_gmail_!^#_DOT_#^!com

I ship only via FedEX or UPS - your choice.

A picture...  They are in the far back of the rack, butted up against a door with the window open for direct venting, on the shelfs, in front of the S7's are my liquid cooled GPU mining rigs, so there just is no easy way to get a good picture without going throught a lot of hub bub of unbolting the rack from the bracket holding it to the door, and making room to twist the rack around....or disconnecting my GPU rigs and moving them out of the way. Anyways, we all know what an S7 looks like.

Thank you

Canaan just went to 2,468TH on the stats board. Hubba, hubba...  Kiss

EDIT: Now 3,255TH...(17:42 UTC)...SOMETHING must be up...I hope...  Undecided

Must be testing all those new A7s  Grin

The numbers aren't available - I run a report that takes about half an hour to generate it - since of course it's not a lot of use without a large amount of data.

The numbers effectively mean nothing to any particular miner unless they are using them for nefarious reasons, so no I don't provide them for each miner.

So are you saying that the forced BMminer v. 2.0 is made even worse for -ck pool software than it was ?

Sorry.... mis-understod, both BMMiner 1.0 and 2.0 sucks.... Would had been nice with some help to get rid of the BMminer and replace it  Sad
'BDR' is the expected number of blocks - Block Difficulty Ratio

Basically I add up each share's difficulty as a ratio of a block.

A BDR of 1.0 means you'd be expected to have found, on average, 1 block.
A BDR of 5.0 means you'd be expected to have found, on average, 5 blocks.

This also matches the CDF[Erl] calculation parameters - thus why I have that shown also.

So ...
Code:
CDF[Erl]
 0.862659 | bmminer/1 |  75.98414087 BDR | 67 Blocks
 0.385517 | bmminer/2 |   0.48697409 BDR |  1 Block

Means that S9 v1 have found 67 Blocks, with an expected (BDR) of almost 76 Blocks - so almost 9 below expected.
The CDF[Erl] of 0.862659 means that's a 1 in 7.28 chance of that or worse happening ... not really that unlikely.

and

Means that S9 v2 have found 1 Block, with an expected (BDR) of only half a block - so twice as fast as expected.
In this case, since it's one block, it's the same as if it was a 48.7% diff block - and of course being under 100% diff is good Smiley
In my opinion, CDF on a single block isn't all that meaningful, except when looking at high bad luck, to determine when something shouldn't happen, but the CDF[Erl] of 0.385517 means that's a 1 in 1.6 chance of that or worse happening.

Kano, thanks for all the great info and work that you do! I'm guessing that it would probably be too difficult and/or time consuming (or worthless info?) to add some code to the "Workers" tab with our individual running BDR on it. Of course, I wouldn't have a clue on how to implement that, so don't know if it would be feasible or even helpful info to know.
Anyway....
Mine on!!  Grin

Come on BLOCKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! We've got time to squeeze out one more for the day! PUSH!! Cheesy

EDIT: Spot price on Coinbase just took another nice little jump! Would like to see a steady increase up to 800 by the end of the month.  Cool

more PH less luck in mining blocks..

1) S9 problems?
2) bad luck?

... and the current S9 stats in numbers (for all time - i.e. since S9s existed)

... and to repeat what I've said before - this is only S9s connected directly to the pool.
It doesn't include S9s connected via any sort of proxy since a proxy doesn't provide any information about all the types of each miner behind the proxy.

Code:
 CDF[Erl]
 0.862659 | bmminer/1 |  75.98414087 BDR | 67 Blocks
 0.385517 | bmminer/2 |   0.48697409 BDR |  1 Block

Sorry Kano if my joke opened a can of worms.

Sorry.... mis-understod, both BMMiner 1.0 and 2.0 sucks.... Would had been nice with some help to get rid of the BMminer and replace it  Sad

the way I read it is that S9s with new v2 firmware, has already started getting blocks in the pool.... so not bad lah!

All my S9s are stock v1 firmware, and for me, as shitty the bmminer is, I will take the  "if aint broke dont fix it" approach - since approximately 93% of the S9s worked out of the box, and 11 units went bad in less than 60days, from faulty hash boards to even controller failure. What can I say, I was lucky compared to other horror stories. I got all but 1 unit, RMAs back - completing the process in almost 2 months.

I have recommended to my investors to fully support Avalon's new hardware, to ensure competition and keep Bitmain on their toes. I hope A7 will deliver the goods especially in power consumption. If I was to choose 3 main features of the A7 in order of importance, I will choose the following:

1. Power consumption - 1000watts per miner - this watts ratio per miner I think is the make or break to most miners
2. Supportability and warranty - at least 12 months warranty, like any other IT HW provider
3. cgminer - dont get me started on this ....
4. "9TH to 11THs" - minimum hashing power expected for an A7...

A next generation miner doesnt have to be "super fast" - it just need to be solid performer, solidly build and with proper supportaibility. Just my 2 cents...

Well...with the Github pull...and Canaan back on the stats big time...I'm feeling a bit better. Mine on.

Well those damn S9's are back and there goes the luck!!!!!!!!!!


Hi Kano - can you run the latest S9/BDR stats, if any... just to be sure... I have a strange feeling about bmminer 1.0. All of Juvia is still bmminer 1.0 and I have not upgraded to bmminer 2.0. I hate to think that there is something rotten in v1 firmware against Kano pool. Thanks
The stats are only getting better, not worse.
Also the 2.0 has now found a block with a BDR less than 1.0

However, for more interesting news ... there's been an A7 pull request on cgminer Cheesy
https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/pull/701

woww!!! A7 is real then... fantastic news!

Waiting so longgg for this.  I sold off six of 18 coins That I was holding for new a7's

I still have 12 coins to buy some.
