DO YOU THINK I can get a third one to work on the same pc? be fun to try. Depends on how many you are running on each hub. You could always get another cheap controller like beaglebone black or raspberry pi, although I never had any luck with the latter. In fact I've got a defective RPi I'll throw in with the first order of 2 or more hub/ stick combos. Not sure what's wrong with the pi, it resets on me and I haven't had time to take a look at it yet. It may have a bad poly-fuse and easy to fix, or it may be a new doorstop, but who cares, it's free!

DO YOU THINK I can get a third one to work on the same pc? be fun to try. I think USB port limitations is 127 in Windows. yes i have read that as the limit which with my mobo using 1 port for mouse/keyboard 1 port for each of the 49 port hubs would be 127-4 = 123 sticks max. now I put in a 5 port usb pcie card in this pc and it claims i can run 127 ports on each of its 5 ports. right now It is running the 2x 49 port hubs. I would like to know a if the pcie card lets me get past the 127 port limit. this asus mobo has run 113 sticks and it said I exceed the port limit when I went to the 114th stick. I used a lot of hubs and no pcie usb2 card to get to the 113 which is the most sticks I ever run on a single machine. It would be very nice to get to 120 plus

It would be very nice to get to 120 plus The physical limit per usb port is 127 usb devices, this INCLUDES hubs, windows, linux, OSX, doesn't matter. Assuming the PCI-E card runs each port individually and doesn't have it built in as some cheap ass 5 port hub you should be able to run 127 USB devices/port, if it does has some built in cheap ass 5 port hub thing then you'll be limited to 126 devices between all 5 ports.

YEAH I Think it could run 5 hubs at 49 stIcks each. I will most likely order one more hub tonight

For those looking for a psu to run this hub Rosewill 350rv has +5V@35A and is dirt cheap. I should see my hub/miners and psu this afternoon, well report back on how it does. I'm adding it to this pair of Pi's. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi32.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fd37%2Fmadcratebuilder%2FComputer%2520Stuff%2FPICT0013Custom_zps58a4567f.jpg&t=665&c=vI0jJ_AXK_npDQ) OMG, now that's a good use for 1-2-3 blocks... jeez I hope those are cheap enco's and not some high end staretts or brown-n-sharp...

I got one of the two hubs running. All 48 on the running hub are hashing away. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FCqAAZVE.jpg%3F2&t=665&c=Zn-mBq_pYP9gwg) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FXJewMs8.jpg%3F2&t=665&c=vV_FF7q_Jbb7Zg) Thanks CrazyGuy! -herener That's an extremely tidy setup! By the way fellas, I didn't receive a batch of USB units today, it was all blades. I still hope to receive enough to pair with the available hubs within the next couple days. My apologies to those of you who had your hopes up.

Is there any consensus on a good Power supply to buy if you are running 40+ sticks.
I pulled an old 380w Raid Max out of my retired computer hardware box and have been running 43 block erupters and 2 usb fans. Seems like new ones on the low end are just not up to snuff. I realize it has something to do with the power going to the rails on new PSUs from reading through the forum, but my understanding of electronics is limited. Seems like a better idea to go digging through the garbage than online shopping at this point.

I've been using one of these for 2 months in my pc I built with no problems. I bought another one last week to use with my hub, it handles 49 miners no problems. Been running it few days now. It's a really nice and cheap option. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=151159152624Also, since these run on 5 volts, you need a psu that puts out enough amps at 5v. If your using an old 350 watt pc power supply I doubt it has enough amps at 5 volts. Theoretically you need at least 25 amps at 5 volts. But power supplies are always over rated and you don't want to run them at their max capacity. The one I listed above is 32 amps at 5 volts.
