Thanks.
So there is no aluminum plate to go underneath? Is what Phoenix said a concern? What is safe to let the board rest on while hashing?
Well one would imagine that being an owner of a Saturn or a Mercury, i.e. the two purchasers these were directed towards you should have space available in your case... I thought we could fill all 6 modules in a Jupiter? Not officially... Then I'll have some for sale if they don't work I guess. Man communication around here is ass. Are you kidding?! Nobody ever said that 6 boards fit into one case! It was never stated these were only for Saturn and Mercury here... https://www.kncminer.com/news/news-64I have 2 open slots on my controller board. What else am I supposed to think? Indeed you are supposed to think and just use your brain and look inside your case. Where the f... should there be enough space to fit 6 boards? Officially you are not supposed to open your Jupiter ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

You can, but you better use something under the board for better security. Preferably using spacers.

We provide screws with the same aluminium blanks and screws with the upgrade boards that come with the units. But the whole thing is meant to screw thru the aluminum blank to the case it looks like. Nothing to screw into under the board I guess... Are those aluminum blanks hollow? I'll have to be careful with the size of a bolt I guess underneath so it doesn't cross anything. argh...

You are better of selling them I think. Phoenix or Special-K will buy them off you for sure.

It screws thru the aluminum blank into tiny little mystery donuts. Glad I'm thinking about this now. Bogart has 1 module reserved if I can't use it. ASIC-K, you want some?

Oh, okay you have them already fastened to another case. Was hoping to see two modules hanging out. Where'd you buy that extra long cable?

Yep, If anyone wants me to buy their ordered upgrade boards.... ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I could use a couple more.... I'll shoot you the BTC, and we can notify KNC..... simple as that.

So I have no possible way of securing the fan/heatsink to the board now?
If I had this problem I'd do the following: 1) somewhere on here someone posted how to get extra long cable leads for the extra units and ebay link 2) I run my Jupiter with the cover off...so do the same but simply flip the cover match the screw holes and mount it upside down (sides pointing up) get the correct mounting plugs like are on your orig mining units (or equiv) and with extra long leads on there.....mount the two extras on top..have some 5" fans on the side to blow on the units ..viola 3) or I'd get some pexiglass stuff at a hobby shop and hack together some kind unit with plastic that looks like the MARS Prototype with a big ass Fan at the end anyway a couple guys HAVE CLAIMED to have done this (one guy had a flakey units on two knc boxes so was playing mix /match and tried 6 on the one says it worked...in this thread someplace) so anyway if you got the units give it a shot...even if not official if nothing else I'm sure you can 'easily I mean easily' get your $$$ back selling them anyway but imho if 2 showed up on my door I'd do the above (on the other hand on my unit I'd have to get advice on how to add 2 ports to make 6) my 2c worth Searing
