Title: upgrading antminer s9 firmware
Post by: blockchainmd on August 01, 2017, 09:35:27 PM
Hello,

I have an older S9 12.93 without autotune. First, do you recommend upgrading the firmware?

Second, to upgrade do I use this file: Antminer-S9-all-201705031858-600M-user-Update2UBI-NF.tar.gz or this file: Antminer-S9-all-201704280713-autofreq-user-Update2UBI-NF.tar.gz

Thanks!

If it's running fine and you're getting good numbers poolside, don't do it.  Firmware should only be done if you HAVE to.
