I've been on Slush' pool from the day I turned my bitfury on. No problems with the pool. I did lose an SD card last night. Re imaged another, 6hrs later rpi dead. Wont turn on with wall wart or on the M-board. I have a spare I'm on now. No mods, bitfury does 25-27 GH/s out of the package. Anyone else loose a PI?  I'm searching treads now for a support e-mail address. I'm trying not to pm Dave about this. Anyone got a support e-mail?

I have an m-board here that ate two of them.  Killed one dead, like yours.  The second will light up the red LED if connected to a wall-wart, but that's it.  

Fortunately I had a third RasPi I was using with some BEs that I was able to use on the BFs with a spare m-board.  Emailed about it, but haven't heard a thing.  

Guess I better get another on the way in case they dont send one. I'm fairly certain Dave will take care of it, just a matter of when.

Thanks for the info.

I would suggest trying a new memory card.  I had two rPI fail.  Re-imaging the cards didn't work, but image on a new card has me back up and running

I did put image on new card last night. Original SD was trashed and wont take an image. Then Pi died later. Spare pi came up on the newly imaged card fine. Have more SD on order now. Hope this is just an intermittent V1 m-board thing that can be cured with a V2.
