Anyone open up their E3 units? I am assuming that the RAM found inside it is surface mount? Most likely bitmain ordered the DDR2 memory chips instead of actual memory modules.

However if there are interchangeable DDR2 memory modules inside, then maybe its possible to upgrade the ram to a higher capacity. You will need some open source software to be able to rewrite the firmware however. Most likely won't be worth while to resolder any surface mount memory chips. I can imagine that there are probably a few hundred of them in total on the E3.

Each Antminer E3 have 3 Blades , on every blades have 6 BM1790 ASIC chip
