Hi guys! I am one of those who fall for the promise of a great mining experience with these Coin Craft Desk units. I ordered back in Sept 2013 for the first batch and it came until May 2014. Complete disappointment. Now I'm struggling to get any ROI, but anyway I'm not here to discuss this.
The CCD is already running but my concern is that when I setup the miner to Turbo Mode it doesn't get to the promised Hashing speed using 4 modules of 200GH each. The more intresting thing is that when logging in to the CCD dashboard it says 900GHs+ and when looking at my Bitminter dashboard it reports 600-700+GHs. Less power than when setting the unit in Nominal. I thougth that this was because of the mining pool. I gave a try to BTC Guild and got the same outcome. Less power than what the miner reports in its LCD and dashboard.
Previously I've sent an email to the Bitmine "Support" (sorry for the quotes, but if there are/is any Bitmine member is in this post, you guys always give false expectations and never come out with a solution) and what I've got as answer is that they are "working" on a "new firmware release" which I have never seen or heard of since I bought the unit.
Giorgio and/or whoever else is responsible for this company I'm really disappointment at you guys. You stated that you will not be the next BFL Sh..T
but you are getting there (or are already there). Unexpected delays on product deliveries and refunds
. Changing policies at the last minute to fit your needs
. Poor support and communication skills
.
If anyone in this post is able to make the CCD achieve it's Turbo hashing power and make it recognizable by the mining pool please let me know. Also if the so acclaimed "Firmware Update" is available somewhere in the Internet I would appreciate if you can share it in this post. I tried googling it and all point to Bitmine.ch un-updated website.
Cheers!
PS. This unit will work pretty cool as a high electricity consuming home heater if it don't make any ROI. Can I convert it to a microwave or some kind of convection oven? At least it would heat food or do popcorns. Just a thought.

If you read about 30 backwards you would notice that nobody has gotten the miner to run at a speed that Bitmine has originally promised with their "up to" declaration they had.
you still can find some better settings than the normal settings where both power and hash is somewhat parallel and reasonable.
I'm a a newbie on this hardware thing. Can you elaborate more on how can I find better settings?
Thanks!
