Title: Bitfury Drillbit specs? (drillbit 8 board/miniplane)
Post by: reikokuko on September 20, 2013, 05:11:55 PM
Hi all:

I did some searching and I couldn't seem to find any specific details about these Drillbit 8 boards/miniplanes.  Are they standalone? Do they connect to a device via USB? And how are they powered?

Basically, what exactly am I going to need in addition to the board to get one up and mining?

Thank you.

Minersource.net says free delivery in the US, but it's trying to charge me $25 on checkout with an estimated ~45 days shipping.

Drillbit Thumb -            0.8 BTC  (2.7 GH/s)
Drillbit 8 chip Board -     2.5 BTC (21.7 GH/s)
Drillbit Miniplane -         0.3 BTC
Drillbit Double Scroll -    0.3 BTC


The 8 chip board is the one I order myself, if you order more than one then it's best to get a Miniplane which is a small motherboard that takes up to 4 Drillbit 8 chip Boards. See the main group buy thread for pictures.
