It arrived an hour ago.

I will film a YouTube and photo for here.

Mine just landed in my country... should be the next day or two now

EDIT: Looks like it's coming tomorrow!

it just started to mine it took 15 hours to load the chain

hmm it booted to load at block 850000 and that is not a full node I think it will turn off  and it did.

it is going back to loading the chain block 857276 is where it is up to.  So it is trying to start mining too soon. It did it again

961147 is the block height at time of writing so yeah, you're not fully synced yet but that's certainly faster than the Apollo II was from memory

I have 1gb internet. so it is fast.

but it seems like it false tried to mine at 850k block a few times and then stopped.

here is where it is at after 17 hours

Got mine a couple days ago.  Took almost exactly 1 full day to download the blockchain.  Super impressed by how quite this thing is at ~13TH/s (Eco mode).  Running Solo now... I ran the Apollo BTC for years without a single issue and it's still running fine.  Well, that is until I tried to update to the latest version anyway.  It bricked during the update but I'm restoring it now and I'm sure it will be fine.

Got mine a couple days ago.  Took almost exactly 1 full day to download the blockchain.  Super impressed by how quite this thing is at ~13TH/s (Eco mode).  Running Solo now...  Question about my Apollo BTC... can I point the hash to my Apollo 3?  I will shut that node down since I have the III now.

I am at block 960,000 so it should mine in a little bit.


the blockchain is a bit over 803gb so far I have a new 2tb ssd in it.

node is good miner won't mine

I will be back later to work on this.
