So, does anyone need either my chinese controller or industrial PSUs? As I have no use for them, I am willing to sell that stuff for cheap..

Nice development ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Will they be shipped with an "plug and play" image? So that we can start mining out-of-the box?

That, my friend, would be another nice trust from me for you and a posting in the "Trusted Members Topic" Easy buying, easy mining. Plug and Play at its best.

I just ordered a raspberry to play with as the gridseed controllers seem a bit flaky and a linux box is bigger than I want to use, may I have an RPi image for my batch 3 order? I'd like to dual mine while it is still more profitable than scrypt only, if possible on the RPis.
By the way, I've been running GPU rigs since last summer on compact flash cards, the only ones to die have been Sandisk, I lost 3 out of 5 before retiring the last ones, after 3 months... Kingston's slowest and 7dayshop cheapos are still rocking, some after 6+ months. A couple of Transcends running fine for a few months too.

Can you also upload that image somewhere then? I just ordered a Raspberry Pi as a replacement for my chinese controller.

There are various tips on reducing disk access for flash drives, also useful is to use a bigger flash drive than you 'need'. I mostly (Sandisk is the exception) have success if I keep the flash drives less than 1/2 full. This drastically reduces the wear on the flash memory. Cards are cheap, downtime is not. It seems 4GB is needed so I'll be using an 8GB for starters. There are no problems writing an image to a larger drive than needed. I wouldn't mind buying an image on SD if it's a pain to upload etc. About 10 euros for software that just works seems a bargain to me.
