First time BM purchaser! Got my 8 S3s today, 7 run like champs around 441ish, although I have one that has a massive 25% HW errors, hashing at about 60-65% of what it should be doing. Any ideas?

I'll suggest to flash firmware (without preserving settings) from bitmaintech webpage and see how it goes ... 

Thanks for the tips, but still getting 25% HW errors and underperformance.

Following has been attempted:

Different PSU, cables. Flashed the firmware, still nothing. I inspected the unit, cross referencing it to one that works fine, and there were no discrepancies.

Going to contact Bitmain about a replacement, hopefully they'll make it right.
