Topic: [SOLD] Onda B250-D8P mining rig (Read 637 times)

Thank you for the thoughts, I appreciate your time and I agree, super smooth and easy purchase.

I will take another look at everything here shortly and hopefully have no more questions.

Thanks!

Good news:  I found the bag with all the extra hardware/nuts/bolts and Allen keys it came with.

I’ll drop em in a usps priority packet and send em your way this week.

the screw heads or nuts go through the bar. or slide inside the rails.  
gotta adjust them for slack, wiggle the nuts into the channel, and tighten (some bar ends have holes for through-tightening the round headed endcap screws that slide into the channels, you will notice those on the cut ends of some parts).  

I left all screws in their respective locations for easy reassembly (hopefully).   Even with Spotswood's directions;  it took me a bit to get that frame assembled; and it was accomplished by skewing from the directions slightly to be honest.
I believe when I photographed it, I took the photos of the parts disassembled but in the places/zones they came from.



When running many cards before, I used a coolmax 1600w PSU alongside that one....   it had more a bunch more PCIE connectors and cables on it.... but for the longest time that thing was doing low power mining and early XMR mining and only ran it with that PSU.

On the 1.0 board, the edge connectors (black PATA/SATA power cable) are the 12V source for each of the PCIE slot zones.   I never needed to populate the final SATA plug at the end from what I remember.  I believe it and the one before it serve power to 3 of (or the 4) 1x connectors.  I kinda forget exactly.    

I guess it all depends on how you are running the rig, how much power you are going to feed what kind of cards ultimately.


Also;  a VERY smooth transaction for future note;  Both buyer and escrow.   Thanks again =)

Getting this thing put together, going pretty well, couple of questions when you have a moment...

How do you connect the bars that the fans are on? It looks like there is a screw into each side of the main bars, but also some brackets on each corner, which works best?
I can plug the motherboard power cable in, no problem. How many of the other motherboard power supply inputs need connected? I see 3 molex and 3 SATA connectors, do they all need plugged in? Did you power the 3 molex from 1 cable and same with the SATA?
It looks like the PSU has the 24 pin, 8 pin MOBO, and an extra 8 pin connector connected to it, is that really an PCI cable (it's a little too worn to read)
I see 3 other 8 pin cables, so a total of 4 cards. Do I need another PSU to get up to 8 cards? Or if I split each one is that enough power per card?

Once I work through some of the above I will get it booted up, so far so smooth!

Thanks!

all involved did their to make a good deal.

thank you.

Sold, shipped and paid for.

Very smooth transaction.

*update*. Sale in progress....

Will do Phil;  I plan to box it up tomorrow after work.

I just finished installing W10;  Just installed the downloaded ISO while it was plugged into the net;  remembered it's old status and activated automatically. https://imgur.com/Flkj9x8

Couldn't install the crimson blockchain driver (no card);  so the installer is in the downloads folder for you.  netplwiz.exe used to set to auto-login.  The user account's password is in a text file on the desktop in case you need it (for RDP and to change it).

I am running it through all the updates right now (thank god I finally got better internet for home out here in the boonies;  my cellular link is ~30Mbit now instead of 3).   
I'll run it updating tonight until it doesn't find anymore updates to install; then Ill consider it all ready to box up.

Am I direct shipping it to you @DebitMe?  I have never done a goods escrow personally yet; its always been direct for me in the past.  Knowing Phil has payment;  I have zero worries about sending it direct (unless you prefer anonymity).
I can have the shipping cost to give you once I have a zip code and its final box size.  I tend to use USPS (typically most cost-effective and reliable), but if another service reaches you better or more reliably, its your choice.

It will ship out of 95037.

 Please message me when ready to do this.

Awesome.

I’ll get on installing 10 when I get back home then get it packaged up.
I’ll pm when ready for shipping info.

That works for me and yes please on windows.

Thanks

Yeah;  I had a rough weekend myself, but am back on the upswing.

I just finished taking photos and disassembling it.

I booted it up; and apparently it was last running ubuntu;  so i can wipe the drive and re-install windows 10 on it before I package it up if you want;   
I totally forgot I had it gambling on finding an address with $$$ in it =)

I'll tape antistatic over the mainboard to protect it from the padding Ill be putting in the dead spaces; and probably use something to secure the PSU to the main tray back as it was;  it seems that smarter way to ship it being physically attached to the frame.

If you want me to disassemble it more, I can probably fir the frame into a tube mailer;  but this seems the best way;  easiest to re-assemble;  the frame protects the mainboard in transit, etc.

Sorry sorry. I am a tax accountant, so I am absolutely bonkers right now. I am ready to move forward with purchase. Philip would you please setup escrow?

Thanks

Was taking a look at this board just a little while ago and this one seems to be priced right with the frame and extra things included.
So did debitme secure this and the sale has concluded?
As far as I could tell they were waiting on a payment so they can buy this lot from you.
Correct? If not then maybe you can give an update on the progression of this sale.
Thanks.

I had a variation of that build

7 x 1080ti's and 1 lessor card

Sounds great. I just realized that I have a 24 hour waiting period to withdraw from nicehash as I just setup 2FA. So unfortunately I won't be able to fund escrow until tomorrow. Will message you when it's ready to go, sorry for the inconvenience.

<3 TY phil =)  Much appreciated.

Yeah the manual was close for getting it assembled;  but I remember there being some differences in mine....  I think there are a couple slight differences with the way I set it up because of that I think.
It will be easy to put most of the hardware back into its locations when disassembling; making reassembly a little bit easier.

I have some more running around to do today, help a friend drop a set of rebuilt heads back on his 460; and go to my other friend's auto shop and give him a hand for a few hours to pay for use of his shop lift yesterday.
If I don't have anything pop up for tonight;  Ill get on the imagery and disassembly tonight.

I'm not sure if I have the bag with the allen screwdriver tool and extra hardware the frame came with for assembly...  If I find it I will include it.
At last look (we will see for certain soon) I believe I had 4 or 5 dual-ended PCIE power cables still attached to that miner frame.   If you need more;  they are the standard pinout/interchangeable so easy to add more from a spare supply.

 

I believe this is the correct assembly manual for the frame.    https://spotswoodcomputercases.com/wp/?page_id=9152

I will help do escrow since this is for JaredKaragen I will wave my $20  minimum fee.
I will charge only whatever coinbase charges be to send it to the seller.

JaredKaragen and I go back for years.

I sold him this board in 2018

Could you take some pictures from all angles and send them to me? Then let's tear it down and ship individually, that is probably the cheaper option and with pictures I can just assemble it myself.

Thanks
