Do you use USB sticks?

After many tries I decided  to pcie images not USB sticks

The cheap USBs don't work, many errors mostly IO Linux errors.

Need USB3 type thumbdrives for best results.

6 of my newer rigs Z170s mobo, no SSDs or m2, uses USB3 thumbdrives and runs well.

The other existing 24 rigs - do have SSDs already, I just replaced the Windows with smOS image.

If you have m2 storage, I think its best to use them because cost of small and cheap m2 storage still does its job at wire speed, versus a USB which will need USB3 for speed and decent capacity 16/32GB, which probably is around the price of the m2 storage and USBs if not from reputable brands, have many horror stories usually manufactured in small dark alleys.

I got screwed on some sandisk usb 3.0 sticks they did not work well.

I saw the lot of 10 m2 pcie ssds  from kingston 48 bucks  only $4.80 a pcie  they are gold so far

very good buy this Phil.

m2 storage will be really fast and Linux will love that.

USBs are designed for data/files portability -- so -- its best to go for reliable permanent storage at wire speed.

Are you guys seeing issues for 470 / 480 rigs where Simplemining wouldn't detect or mine with some of the GPUS but windows would see and able to mine with the same GPUs which means it's not a GPU or riser failure.   Furies are super stable on Simplemining but not 470/480
Yes i have same issue, some cards work some cards are just on 300 mhz and not mining. i really cant figure out what is the issue. i tried changing risers but i think it is the miner itself. I am slo getting error 147 and i dont have any card with moded bios. Does anyone has a solution or we have to wait? Thanks

upon bootup, I see this 300mhz issues once in a while.... but will go away after a while when hashing starts.

I am unsure if this is a kernel issue but its a small issue non-impact to overall mining.

Unless if the rig stays stuck on 300mhz, then GPU or riser could be the culprit (or underpowered PSU). If you are using ASrock mobo with on-mobo molex power, be sure to power that too. And use powered risers especially if your rig has multiple GPUs.

I get it also







I added a mobo and spread cards around working better now.  The room is 93f I am going to open door to cool room down



It appears the issues is mainly with the RX image.  The R image are very stable.  I have tried on over 30 different rigs.  All Furies R image rigs are stable, only 3 out of 15 RX Rigs can detect all GPUs and running without issues.  My RX are mostly MSI RX470 / 480 on stock and MOD bios.  I've upgraded the Beta release and same issue.  If you we see it showing 300 speed, that means that GPU is failing or having issues.  No issues with Windows. Hopefully this will get fixed soon.

Guys if you have overclocking problem please tell me if applying BETA KERNEL if fixing it ?
It should Smiley

About optiminer and sgminer, yes i will implement next versions.
Give me little time Smiley

Phil  I saw you purchased   this set of 10 small m.2 pcie ssds

Do you use them in your four card biostar z170 builds?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/112143250197?



yeah  I made about 6 clones so far  and put them in  the biostar  z170s   or into this case  for my no m.2 pcie boards

Hi Tytanick,

Can you upgrade sgminer-gm v5.5.5 to latest sgminer-gm v5.5.5-4

The latest one fixed cryptonight issues on Nicehash pool.

Thanks

- did you try the beta kernel? should work for most of these problems
- changed risers?
- reboot?

I had problems with specific hardware, what mb are you using?
