Title: ASICMiner Block Erupter question Post by: LucidDev on August 22, 2013, 04:03:26 AM I am looking into getting a dedicated machine to start plugging hubs into with my erupters, but I can't find anything that says whether or not the erupters need USB 3.0
My question: Do the ASICMiner Block Erupter need USB 3.0 to mine at 333 Mh/s or will they still mine at peak with 2.0? Title: Re: ASICMiner Block Erupter question Post by: thefunkybits on August 22, 2013, 05:29:04 AM Mine is working fine on 2.0!
Damn difficulty spikes suck though :( Title: Re: ASICMiner Block Erupter question Post by: CrashX on August 22, 2013, 07:30:37 AM Mine is working fine on 2.0! Damn difficulty spikes suck though :( +1 getting hard to mine if you under 10ghps :'( Title: Re: ASICMiner Block Erupter question Post by: ProudMiner on August 25, 2013, 06:13:38 PM USB 2.0 is suffice.
Happy mining ;D Title: Re: ASICMiner Block Erupter question Post by: zamot on August 25, 2013, 07:34:57 PM My question: Do the ASICMiner Block Erupter need USB 3.0 to mine at 333 Mh/s or will they still mine at peak with 2.0? They are working even with USB 1.1 ;D Good luck with mining. Title: Re: ASICMiner Block Erupter question Post by: Cilantro on August 25, 2013, 10:18:30 PM USB 2.0 is just fine and I recommend using a raspberry pi with minepeon.
MinePeon by mineforeman http://sourceforge.net/projects/minepeon/ The raspberry pi can't run the block erupters without a USB powered hub. Title: Re: ASICMiner Block Erupter question Post by: evilmattyj on August 26, 2013, 06:34:31 AM you can use Bfgminer + erupters on the Pi (with the USB powered hub) with Raspbian just fine, no need to go to a customised build.
