Re: Scrypt Asic Silverfish 28 Mh/s $1999.99 IN STOCK zoomhash.com
Ordered 6/29, Received 7/3
Miner was very well packaged. Double boxed and securely packed with foam.
Haven't check power at the wall yet, but estimate 450-500 watts.
Hash rate varies by pool, not necessarily the miner... on some of the smaller pools, the device fluctuates between 24-28Mh/s on the bigger faster pools performance is more steady.
The fan is loud. Despite the pictures posted depicting 2 stacked 80mm fans, mine arrived with a single high rpm 120mm which is not excessively loud, but certainly in the 50-55db range.
First impression is that the cooling solution can be improved, so I'll be working to quiet it down. There's a picture showing the silver fish along side a S1 from Bitmain.
Very pleased with the device's performance.
Software support is limited. There is no Linux software that I'm aware of to interface with this device. I don't use windows unless absolutely necessary, so my solution was to run the SFminer software
from within a WIN7 image on Virtualbox which seems to do just fine.

Another excellent transaction with Zoomhash. Thanks Michael!
EDIT: After some further investigation, I discovered the SFminer software uses UDP ports 49168 and 49169 to communicate with the miners. Initially I had these ports blocked. After unblocking the ports, the SFminer software runs fine using WINE on Lubuntu 14.04.
