Title: So I've replaced the 2 noisy fans on My E9+... Post by: stelee68 on April 01, 2018, 08:24:52 AM Story background :
Faulty hashboard 1 on my Ebang Ebit Miner E9+. Noisy fans at 6000 rpm, which i think is unnecessary. Context : Removed hashboard 1, moved board 2 to board 1 position. Created 1 empty hashboard space for better heat dissipation / air ventilation. Replaced 2 noisy "Cool Master" fans (12V DC, 2.7 Amp), with lower RPM fans (12V DC, 1.6 Amp). Cost : 2 x DC 1.6A fan : USD$15 each Cable cutter : USD$5 Electrical Tape : $1 Time Taken : 30 mins (exclude shopping for parts) Satisfaction : Priceless Verdict : It is great that I'm now able to run the silenced E9+ miner just next to my bed without affecting my sleep. I had the miner and a Bitmain PSU inside a plastic container, now the noise level is less than 48Db (which is about the same noise level as having a server in my bedroom).

Special thanks to our Pro, HagssFIN. Without you, I wouldn't believe its possible.. |
