So I've had a 6 cube Neptune running for the past week without issues.  About 2 hours ago, it quit mining and the gui shows no cubes.  I've tried restarts, plug/unplug but no help.  This is currently the second board I have with this issue.  What's the issue?  I know I must be missing something.  Does the firmware just get corrupted and needs a recovery SD?

Yep.  I can even reach the GUI, just doesn't show cubes.

Yep.  I've got a Corsair 850 only supplying power to the BB.  The cubes are on separate 850w psus.  Same issue with cubes on 1200w plat server psu.

Going to try a recovery sd now.

Yep.  Even went down to 1.02 and back up to 1.06s.  I figure something is corrupt somewhere that's not being overridden.

Recovery to RC6 didn't work either.  Starting to run out of ideas.

So far what I have found is instead of a long white flash, I get 3 short ones each separated by several seconds.  Never gets the green light.

Yes, it was that the controller went bad.  If you are getting the 3 white flashes instead of a long one, then you can pretty much figure you need another controller.  I've been lucky and have been able to pick them up from old Saturn, Mercury & Jupiter machines.  It's the same controller board, just less ports.
