None of my units run properly. I've tried everything, but the cards just drop offline if they show up in the first place. Then slots start going dead entirely and cards never show up on them again. I thought maybe I had a bad component. I just got two new 100gh units today, that I bought specifically to get my October unit working finally. These ones are just doing the same thing, so there goes that plan. They don't even run for 2 minutes without dropping cards. I've lost so much time and money and these things it's disgusting. I've averaged about 50gh on my october unit, and I'm talking about 15 cards not 1.

Hmm, yeah they can be finicky/flaky, but I'm wondering did you make sure the cards are not wobbling? If they are left freestanding in the slots and you got a powerful fan blowing on them they will sway and wobble like crazy and this can cause them to work themselves loose from their respective slots. If you don't have a case for them I suggest maybe securing them by some method. Some have even used tape on the top of the cards. Also pay close attention to the slot arrangement. Make sure you have the cards distributed as evenly as possible across the various banks. Place the worst performing card at the end of the card chain.

I've tried securing them a few ways, they don't seem to move. Even with just about no airflow I get the same result.

When I do find a card combination that seems to work, it's not long before a card drops off and even a reboot or reseating the cards doesn't fix the problem. I've tried hundreds of card combinations, I pretty much have to rearrange them every time I restart. Which is like 20 times a day. If I don't, eventually only 1 or 2 cards will be left running. If any at all.
