Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

And it's pretty obvious from the state of the fans inside that it got some rough handling....

No - the box had a hole there. I didn't take a picture - i figured people could imagine the box from the condition of the contents.... |

When I was younger we didn't have behavioural disorders. They called it "being a brat". It was as simple as that!

Here's the two girls all put back together good as new, connected up to a wireless bridge, and doing some test hashing after upgrading to .95 firmware...

2 things
1) why do the two of them side by side look different? Is one the saturn
2) you'd think KNC would package them better, was there any foam / packing stuff or was the miner just thrown into the shipping box?

The one of the left is the Saturn - it only has two hashing modules. They are well packaged - the box is custom, and the miners sit in custom foam inserts built to fit the miners and the box. KNC has already decided to go with heavier shipping boxes. You'll get to see the box and packaging for yourself for yourself in a couple of days when this first Jupiter arrives. When they get there, take the case lid off, fix the fans - at least some of them will probably get knocked loose during the trip - and just leave the lid off. They run pretty cool that way. |

This is why Knc will stop using UPS for delivery in the near future. DHL is falling all over themselves to be the replacement shipper... |

Catching up on the pics. Holy shipping hell that's some rough handling. It'd be better if they just shipped the fans separately in a smaller sub-box, from what I'm seeing. Shippers just toss this stuff around because they have so much volume to deal with and it isn't their property. Will DHL be any better about handling shipments that truly is fragile? (Or at least not a box of pillows or blankets) In defense of UPS guys, they work tons of overtime every week on my island. A driver was griping to me that most of the guys at UPS on another island had their marriages fail because they were never home and they were trying to get management to ease up a little. That's why they toss this stuff around: because they're overworked and have tight deadlines they're supposed to meet. Still sucks to see our hardware treated this way for premium shipping.  |

So I decided- First 2 Jups that get here will be hooked up to the EVGA 1300w Golds I have, then the next 2 will get HX1050s. Maybe one of them will get a OCZ1250, but that one got lit-up buy a avalon, so had to RMA it.
