no is the simple answer.

the older s7's used to run  5 and 6 boards but they went away from that option.

I saw someone controlling 6 boards just fine, he can in fact solder the sockets and the boards will show. I'm not sure about the merits for doing this. In that case i saw, it had the asic boards submerged in a tank. The fans work too fwiw. That particular controller should in theory be able to handle 8 asic boards and 6 fans.

But these controllers are cheap, especially when obtained from used units with damaged asic boards. There is also the annoyance of getting the data cables long enough to accommodate all 8 asic boards.

I want to make a miner with 20 of hash board in mineral oil, but I want minimum price.

Do multiple boards don't add.

The old s7 had 6 spots to plug in and you could do 6 boards  and they would hash a little bit less.

Somewhere in this section I posted on doing 6 board s7's  and it would do a little less hash per board.

Not sure where you are, but I've got at least two, maybe three S9 controllers on a shelf. Probably got some of the fully loaded S7 controllers Phil just mentioned also.

So S7 controller won't take S9 firmware?

So S7 controller won't take S9 firmware?

no but it's compatible with other s9s and t9s+  and I think maybe r4 and v9

S5 and s7 can swap fw if I remember right,
