Antminer S4 SD Card issues

October 09, 2015, 09:23:47 PM

For some reason, my Antminer S4 card became corrupt. I went out and bought a new SD Card, but I am unsure of how to put the firmware on the card. Any help would be awesome thank you!

You will need a copy of the S4 image. If you use a program like win32diskimager you can burn it to the new SD.

There should be a few images in S4 thread that are backup. You need backup not firmware image.

They become corrupt from turning it on/off with the psu too many times. It's hard on the sd card file system just like your computer which offers the shutdown via the OS.
