A few notes:

I added a 120mm Antec fan to the front of each miner. I could not get any screws to work, so tied them on with wire leftover from jumping my power supply.
The PSU's are Antec HCG-850M.
They are in my office, where my PC also lives. They are all pulling from the same surge protector. When I overclocked them all to freq 400, it popped my circuit. They are now OC'd at 375.
The strip LED's are cheesy I know, but couldn't resist.

Kudos:
Bitmining community - I know IT but don't know electronics so learning how to jump the PSU's and OC the Antminers is all from links on Google and this forum.
Bitmaintech.com - I got the 4 Antminers in 3 orders over a 1 month period of time factory direct from China. All 3 orders arrived super fast, in 3-4 days. The machines work very well.

Suggestion:
The miners have wireless, but no antenna. Turns out it is hard to find just a wireless antenna, so for now these are using the 4 ethernet ports on my Wireless router.

Thanks for the link, I will get some ASAP so I can get this noisy thing a few feet further away!

By the way, made a video of the new thing, this is too much fun! :-)

My first custom miner using 4 Antminer S1s.

Was educational and amusing to build, will be amazing if it pays for itself too!

The future behind such innovative technologies as a virtual reality! Powering virtual school sharing networks.

a solid team of developers and really ambitious development plans with NWC platform,

When NWC platform was established?

NWC beta version was established and launched in September. We are currently still working on the page and platform. The website design is currently in place and finishing of the last touches inside the platform.

If you are working from September means,it almost 2-3 months. So you are working in deep for your project. When your full work of the project will completed?
Waiting to see the fully finished platform  Smiley Smiley

In the next week we are projecting to launch newly designed platform and finished school program. The "coming soon" tools on the platform will be open by the end of the year.

Nice to hear this dude.Many suggested you to start a bounty in order to advertise your project .When you are going to launch your bounty ?

Hmm, I have 8 S3 and they run like naked ladies in North Dakota all day long.
I forget about them sometimes. Once a week or so I reboot them for good measure.

Wow, 11 blocks in the verification queue. I think that is a record for my time mining here!


Meh. Looks like 316808 is orphaned. Oh well, still interesting.

Hopefully we can get a bit higher to 100%.

Just curious but does anyone know why slush stopped with mergemining?

If you search back in this thread, you can find out for yourself. But iirc it is because namecoin is not supported by the devs anymore.

Speaking of merged mining, I have been balancing between Slush and Ghash. Now I have like 200 Devcoins. What the heck can you do with Devcoins?

Well, at least about 30 PH has left the mining pools since last I checked, from 190 down to 160 +/-.
So block time is back up from 7.5 to 8.7 minutes. That may help make the next LOD easier to survive.

The 'best' you can do in mining is join a pool so big it always makes you a little money.
There are freight trains and there are roller coasters. I find it interesting that Slush has
had a great day, even with lower pool GH/s and an increased LOD. If I can find this man
I will buy him a beer.

Load balancing in just about everything - mining, investing, etc. leads to greater peace of mind.
I don't recommend trying it with romantic partners though ...

Slush is not a romantic partner, or else you are doing it wrong.

/* I have 8 S1s and load balance by pointing 4 to slush and 4 to GHash. Seems a lot easier, but thanks for the info. */

That is definitely easier, I just wanted to figure out how the balancing worked because of the S2 in the middle.
Now I know how to point 8 miners evenly at 3 pools, but there really is not another pool that excites me. I hate
the payouts on Eligius and just never made any money on BTCGuild, so for now will keep the split between Slush
and Ghash.

Best of Both Worlds
-------------------

I hate long blocks, like everyone, and I hate pool hopping, because it never works.
So, here is what I did. Your mileage may vary.

For all my miners, I added ghash.io as a failover pool, Slush is primary.

Then, on the configuration page for the Antminer S3 miners, I changed 'Pool Balance' from Failover to Balance.
Initially this did not work so great, and Ghash was rejecting a lot of shares. After
looking around a bit, the reason became clear. Slush was sending me work with a
difficulty of around 128 +/-, and Ghash was sending me work with a difficulty of
1024. 50% of a S3 is not up to that.

The good news is that Ghash allows you to set the difficulty of your work. So, I went
to the workers section and set all of my miners to 128, then rebooted them all. The
rejections went way down.

Next, I let them run about 10 minutes so Slush could score them, and again updated
their difficulty to match what Slush was using.

All 8 of the S3 miners are now showing about 200 GH/s +/- on both Slush and Ghash.
Perfect.

The Antminer S2 does not have the balance option, but I wanted it to do the same thing.

So I found this link searching on Google:
http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/20992/can-i-set-up-cgminer-to-mine-in-different-pools-by-a-defined-ratio

I suppose it will work for anyone using CGMiner, but just tried it on my S2.
I changed the quota numbers to 50 for Slush, 50 for Ghash.

Don't forget to add the last line: "load-balance" : true,

Oh, and on the S2, you will find the config files in /config instead of /etc/config, and the pw is admin, not root like on the S1 and S3.

Anyway, now all 9 miners are balancing successfully between Slush and Ghash. I have 9 legs on a roller coaster and the other 9 on a freight train ... doesn't sound healthy, but so far, so good.

Mining between slush, eligius, BTC Guild, and GHash.io

Why is it when I switch back to slush they have a block round that last over 24 hours, but when I switch away they find 11 blocks in 24 hours? Huh Huh Huh

Anybody else ever notice that?

I think I discovered a new law of nature called "Miner's Revenge" or "Murphy's Law for Bitcoin Mining"
100% Grin

The S3's have a feature called load balance which will allow you to mine on all 3 of your entries equally at the same time. I haven't tried it but on the S3 thread I noticed some had.
Sounds like a great feature. Right now I have 8 S1s and normally have 4 on Slush and 4 someplace else and comparing showed I would have been better with all on Slush. So much for trying to use past events to predict the future. Should have known better but what the heck!

I did not try to tweak it too much, but I did try Load Balancing with one of my S3 units and got a lot of discarded shares, seems buggy.

There are seldom any bad guys involved in butthurt.
likewise, there are seldom any good guys in good luck streaks.
It is what it is - Bitcoin mining.
