Re: ANTMINER S7 is available at bitmaintech.com with 4.86TH/s, 0.25J/GH
I am a little bit worried about S7 heatsink issue in case it fell off my s7 will burn!
I highly doubt that the glue which is holding the heatsinks in place will survive several years of nonstop mining
temperature will affect the glue for sure.
Proof me wrong please

These machines aren't designed to last that long, hence the 90 day warranty, but I like the 2 working ones I got waiting for replacement board information from BM for the one that lost some chips/heatsinks.
Exactly my concern.
I run miners till I cannot extract a profit any more. My S2's for example... still mining.
Adhesive mounting will always fail. Looking at the board pictures, it wouldn't have been very difficult to make the heatsinks long strips then have several thru-hole screws sandwiching both sides of heatsinks together.
I'll probably wait for my 90 day warentee to expire then I'll take some heatsink extrusions I have and mill them to size for a retrofit to keep these running.
