Re: ***Spondoolies Tech SP10 - Shipping May 16 - 1.5Th/s - $3,200***
I really wish the price would be just a little bit more aggressive. Around $2/GH. Make you think about it....
It's the lowest $/GH right now if we exclude the scammers from VMC and when comparing to the S2 please take into consideration the following:
As an EE and embedded software engineer I see these problems:
1. Bus based systems using card edge connectors - unreliable (see original IBM PC)
2. Beagle board is hobbyist grade - unreliable, known for SD card problems
3. Too many ASICS - unreliable
4. Shipping problems because of #1 above.

Antminer S2 turned up today, it was in horrible condition, cards loose everywhere, thermal paste everywhere, pci slots all bent to shit, after an hour and a half or so of fiddling (2 screws were stripped and needed to be drilled out) i managed to get it back together, then i had a problem with the screen, played around some more and got that working.
PROBLEM!
Its turning on and mining (all cards are flashing, hash rate on screen etc) but it will not allow me to access the settings and displays a "404 not found" error and on top of that it will not login via ssh with putty and tells me that the password i am using username: root password: root is not working, so i cannot even change pools.
Bitmain shipped me a unit that is basically mining for them!
Can someone please help?

i emailed bitmain but his advice was to reseat everything and try again...
i have done this a dozen times.
is the BBB supposed to have a solid red led lit on it?
404 not found even after hard reset means something is wrong for sure
startin the rig without the sd card makes it spin loud continuously and the lcd screen never 'arrives' despite being lit.

There are TONS of posts like this and also pictures of trashed S2 units.
How many miners Spondoolies delivered?
C'mon some S2 had problems less than 1% most of them on Batch one, I had several customers in the 100TH-300TH range and 101% of them are very happy and ordering more units most of them.
SP-10 is a very good piece of hardware, Gadi and the rest are very nice looks for me like good people.
But considering that I think is not required to day bad things about Bitmain to sell SP-10.
All the best!
