I'm now running a test. I have 3 sticks on old DDR2 pentium dual core 4GB system with Anker USB 3.0 powered hub and 3 sticks on newer DDR3 i7 quad core 8GB system with Orico USB 2.0 hub. All are running @ 300MHz. Let's see how they do . I'm guessing the faster pc should help the sticks to a higher share because of data transfer rate but could be wrong, I usually am . the pc running the sticks should make no difference in a properly coded miner (ie cgminer). after all rpis run multiple higher clocked sticks fine. the usb 2 bus just xfers instructions to the stick, and the stick does the heavy lifting. but ck, novak or sidehack can give the Definitive Answer.

It's 100% chance/luck, there is no correlation.
More sticks = more hash = more chances at a higher share.
Thanks for reply and sorry for delay, I've been tinkering . Yes that's what I thought, what's happened doesn't seem like that though . I'm now running a test. I have 3 sticks on old DDR2 pentium dual core 4GB system with Anker USB 3.0 powered hub and 3 sticks on newer DDR3 i7 quad core 8GB system with Orico USB 2.0 hub. All are running @ 300MHz. Let's see how they do . I'm guessing the faster pc should help the sticks to a higher share because of data transfer rate but could be wrong, I usually am . I wish I would have kept 1 Orico usb hub back in the day. They really were amazing quality and not a ton of hubs are metal. Right now I'm using powered hubs I had in project area. They were low priced and good for the money. So I cant complain to much. I would highly suggest looking into a RPI. The fact of running on almost no electricity is nice. Also they hold price pretty decent so one day you can sell the RPI if you needed money. Just a lot of projects use them so keeps market up. Out of curiosity what is our current percentage of hitting a block? On average? I'm just curious I realize it's low but wondered in overall scheme. But nice compacs are great running on low electricity. http://solo.ckpool.org/users/1JiWuyX94wrCr7JhkAn7x5qNMCEef1KhqX{"hashrate1m": "2.05T", "hashrate5m": "2.03T", "hashrate1hr": "2.06T", "hashrate1d": "2.32T", "hashrate7d": "5.06T", "lastupdate": 1449191245, "workers": 53, "shares":, "bestshare": 702803638.16469097, "bestever": 2935830018} our team pulled 3,038,413,930 not 7,497,968,613 as this is both run added together you need to see a cdf for that many shares but roughly 5% for this round and maybe 11% on the two round combines based on this info: note pulled from kano.is 362 384086 b? ? 25.24253579 2015-11-18 01:46:02+00 Matured 3,993,323,952 6.064% 0.059 12

Thank you both Phil and Kano! Intersting to see some numbers behind it all. Been fun so far.
I'm still enjoying mining with these little guy's. Feels like the old day's in mining dealing with the sticks. So really quite fun I think personally.

well if you one to five and mine you spend around 125 for 5. it is next to nothing to mine it for a year. and the chance of a block and profit is not too bad. Worst case is after a year you still have 5 sticks. if you run 5 and do balanced ½ at this pool and ½ at a pool like bitminter you will have 5 sticks and some coin back. we won't make much but still some fun. In fact I AM GOING TO POINT MY AVALON 6 PAIR HERE FOR A DAY! 1) http://solo.ckpool.org/workers/1JiWuyX94wrCr7JhkAn7x5qNMCEef1KhqX.philipma1957donation

well I have 6 sticks and 6 U3 pointed to the pool I'm off next week, but I should have 1xS3 and 1xS3+ waiting for me when I get back. Maybe I'll add them too

Would like to join and will wait till the next round. I'm on Kano.is pool and wonder why my stick 178 accepted 60 rejected probably means I'm too slow of a miner. Using the new Bfgminer (works great now even for avalon1) 12.42/12.24/ 9.87ghs HW:/2 running for 12 hours
somtimes I get CBM:0 Comms error <werr=1>
Its plugged into a pci usb card. with a case fan pointed to it inside the computer case.

Have you tried increasing the voltage a little bit to get rid of those two HW? My two sticks run on HW:0 when the voltage is right for the freq.

what would the volt setting look like
--set compac:clock=150 ? Awesominer is pointed the the wrong directory so it was set at some default clock/volt and not mine. Another case of poor directory management bfgminer5.4.0 vs bfgminer5.4.1 (Note Awesomeminer can use either cfgminer or bfgminer you choose)
It should be set at 150 again thank everyone for getting me on the right track. This compac is the best usb miner ever, selling all my others including the avalon1

Good to hear you're solving the issue. Just in case, I'll point you to the official compac support thread where there's lots of info on the first post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1173963.0The voltage adjustment is made by moving the tiny screw on the front as seen here: (maybe you already figured it out)

Can I add a couple of R-boxes to the pool? Would only be around 65 Gh/s but every bit could help!
Let me know

Let me know
you do not seem to be on the list as a stick miner. so for now the answer would be no.-- I could have missed something. I may be missing you on list so let me look a bit more. we now have a full list of 40 stick miners and a few as waiting room. please let me review the waiting list and mining list. waiting list: wiefever notabeliever AJRGale munky666 Searing

If your wanting to do this and do not have a compac I suggest going to his group buy thread soon, as I'm not sure how many are left for sale. And a lot of us are looking forward to his pods next. Still not a lot of info on those yet.

Okay I see, sorry about that. Will check on available compacs direct, or through resellers! You can exclude me for now...
