i was running most of my KnC boards completely out of the cases, with all boards in a line, kind of like the KNC facilty.

I just got 6 screws and bolts for each board, 4 to be used at legs and then 2 to hold the heattsinks tight to the board.

Whats all the confusion about, it's easy.
Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

After an almost complete destroyed first shipment of 3TH "Super" Juniors, KnC was so friendly to send me a replacement for those miners...today was my day off and I had a technician with me to test them. Devastated and angry, really pissed that I wasted 12 hours and lots of money for my technician who could not believe that I had paid 10000 USD for such a pile of junk. This is my report:

Disgraceful. The tying wire "solution" was the most Micky Mouse, pathetic, third world piece of engineering I've seen in a long time.

I actually thought it was advice they were giving people to get their broken units working, until they came up with a proper and professional fix for the problem. They needed to do a proper re-design, or more like, return to the design that has worked up to now - arctic i30 bolted in place. But no, KNC are too cheap. They think "Meh, we'll just tie it down with wire - should be good enough for 90 days and then it's not our problem".

What an embarrassment - $10,000 worth of hardware held together by tying wire Shocked

I cannot believe they actually shipped you a replacement unit held together like this. No wonder your technician was horrified. $10,000 for some crap that looks like it was put together by a ham-fisted drunk.

Are they such assclowns at KNC they don't realise that PCB's are not made to take tension in this way? They didn't even put anything into the mounting holes to reinforce and protect the board. And the wire is bound to damage the heat pipes on the heatsink. The should have protected the heat pipes by putting something between the pipes and wire.

It seems clear they totally rushed the job by the fact the boards warped and the wires snapped in transit. Even the wire was cheap and sub-standard.

Hey - new knc catchphrase

"KnCMiner - the most cheap, sub-standard engineering in bitcoin mining"

If I ever see the word "over-engineer" in another of their newsletters, I'm gonna laugh my ass off  Grin

But this is just terrible to see freakingcat. Not only the time and effort and stress you've had, but now also $300 for the technician you hired, who could do very little with all this damaged garbage you were shipped by KNC - for a SECOND time.

freakingcat - keep at those knc assholes to send you replacement boards until you get 3TH of Grade A hardware that does exactly what it should. Accept no excuses, (which I'm sure knc are in the process of cooking up).

What a joke KNC have become.

Based in Stockholm, KnCMiner is a proven leader in delivering custom designed, high performance ASIC mining hardware (< IF the components don't all fall off during shipping  Grin) — payable in bitcoin (< but refunds only via wire transfer, because we hate bitcoin). Their mission is to provide the best equipment and service solutions in Bitcoin mining. (< Mission failed) Co-founders Andreas Kennemar, Marcus Erlandsson, Michael Unnebäck, and Sam Cole bring 10+ years of experience in embedded electronic development, focused on FPGA and ASIC design as well as 25+ years in product and service development respectively.

We spent it all on bribing buying paying our way into becoming a Parasite Platinum member of BTC Foundation. Please stop asking for us to provide fully functional professional hardware - it costs too much! Because we at kncminer, as you all know, are cheap bastards)
