Hi All.  I'm new to crypto-currencies so forgive me if I stumble through this question...

I have 4 Antminer S1's and a 1600 W power supply shipping from e-bay this week and I'm planning on connecting to Polmine, which has an average work rate of 127 TH/s.  Is there some way to network my S1's, such that they all work in concert under one cgminer?  If not, how many shares will I loose to the lack of synchronization?

It seems like the loss would be substantial, i.e. 4 X 0.18/127 TH/s vice 0.72/127 TH/s; like I said however I'm new, so I thought it wise to 'phone a friend."

So hiya friend, what do you think?

S1's do NOT need cgminer, they have built-in controller which you configure by browing to its ip address. You need to read more. By the way, S1's are outdated at this point, no matter how many you have. Sell them on eBay and buy S2's from now on.

Check one of the tutorials on the forms on how to setup. Everything will be in there.
Not everyone has $3000 to dish out on a miner.
So NO s1's are not out dated and will not be for quite some time
