Yea i think i meant "combine" or join the miners.
So are you able to create as many "workers" as u like in multiple pools, and distribute the 900MHs amongst them as u please? Or something different...
Im only a week old in cryptocurrency land. Trying to put it all together ahead of time asap ^^"
So sounds like ill need to get a power supply. (Is it just a regular pc psu , with a couple pins that need shorting?)
Is there anything else , thats so obvious to the experienced user that no one mentions it, that i might be missing that ill need?
Oh, how about ur pc specs? Is there a minimum amount of processor speed, ram etc thats required to run the miners?
You can setup each controller as a single worker. The controller can have multiple of the 150MHs cubes or a single 900.
The quad, for example is 1 controller with 4 cubes compared to 4 single cubes each with its own controller.
There will be 1 ethernet port for each controller, so by combining cubes together with the white cable you can have multiples of 150MHs behind each controller.
I think the max number of cubes behind a single controller is 6.
Personally, I have combinations of 2, 3 and 4 cubes behind my controllers. In my case, I have a 24 port switch, so it dosent matter to me, but if are limited in ethernet ports you may want to run with more cubes under a controller to maximize hashrate per controller.
Switches are cheap though. Just bought a HP 48 port managed switch for work for $70.
As for PSU, any 12V PSU should work. I started off with small linear bricks, then switched to an Seasonic. Made my own PCIe-to-Barrel plugs, works great.
The miners are stand-alone rigs, dont need a PC to run them, just to configure via web page.
I have my giants in a daisy chain. 3x 2 hooked up to 850 g3 evga psu and last 4 on a 1k evga psu. Only need 3 ethernet connections on my whole operation. As you can see in the photos i have 3 web pages controlling them. 2x at 2.7 Gigahashes and the other at 3.6 Gigahashes.
I could run them all standalone but its alot easier this way.
Mining Dash x11 or Nicehash multipool mining the ones in a 3 daisy chain use about 660 watt according to my wattometers. And the 4 units in Daisy chain use about 870 watt.
