At least since you have multiple S7 units you can use one BB to run at least two of them.  Even if one of your BB dies you can try to connect all 6 boards to a single BB and run it like that unit Bitmain gets you a new one.
Can a standard BB control the antminer S 7? I thought they were a bit modded.

They are cost reduced by not populating some chips and connectors, but a standard BBB should work. (pic of a C1 - can anyone confirm if the new ones are different?)


Awesome that's good to know and does the controller attachment keep all the information or would a replacement need a micro sd with an image on it to run properly?
