So Interesting fun fact. My new S9's some have firmware from July, while others have firmware from Nov 17, and a version like S9_V2.54 But on their website, they only have the newest from Aug 15.. Now Why would they not have the newest one on there? I had an issue with the first S9 I got like a month ago, with fan speed ramping constantly, the firmware fixed that so it stayed on more consistent. So Now I am baffled if I should overwrite the Nov 17 with the Aug 15 that had better fan control.

Any opinions?

They probably sent you refurbished miners or miners they used in their farm/hashnest.

If the miner is working properly, don't change the firmware. There have been stories of people bricking machines with newer firmware.

I agree...don't reflash your firmware. Personal experience. Most of us who have been mining for a long time have the belief that the company sends out used miners from their own farms, just cleaned up, as new. I've seen the same situation. I stopped buying Biteme early in 2017, either new or used, for the reasons enumerated on this board many, many times by many, many others...and because of what you've experienced.

Mine on. Kiss
