Will This ASIC Bitcoin Miner Actually Mine?

In today’s video, we got our hands on a Bitcoin ASIC miner, and the question is, will it actually mine? Well, as the title says, will this ASIC Bitcoin miner actually mine? Now, let me give you some context here.

Getting our Hands on a Bitmain Antminer S19j Pro

A few weeks ago, we got our hands on a Bitmain Antminer S19j Pro from the team over at Wadom. If you’re curious about Wadum, they are a complete Bitcoin mining solutions provider and the largest distributor of Bitcoin mining equipment in the United States. Wadom is your one-stop-shop for everything ASIC mining.

Our Experience with the Antminer S19j Pro

Several months back, we got our hands on an S19j Pro, and a few weeks ago, we actually had a problem with it. It caught on fire, and it was nuts. If you’re interested in those videos, there’s a link in the upper right-hand corner and down below to those videos and the follow-up videos breaking down and looking at the hashboard and exactly what we physically could see.

Fast forward to when we sent that out to Wadom, their customer service took care of us, and we received a replacement unit. The replacement unit they sent us was an S19j Pro 100 TH/s model. This unit definitely had some wear and tear but was still expected to be functional.

Testing the Loaner S19j Pro

To test the S19j Pro loaner unit, we connected it to our PDU using two C13-to-C14 cables and turned it on. It’s crucial to note that these units can get very loud due to the fans cooling the system.

Configuring the Bitmain Antminer

If you have never configured a Bitmain Antminer, there is a step-by-step guide on it to help you get it set up; there is a link down below and in the upper right-hand corner.

Once our loaner unit was up and running, it was hashing at about 100 TH/s. We then updated the firmware to the latest version from May 2022, and it started hashing upwards of 103 TH/s, which is great.

However, when we tried to change the fan speed to 50% to reduce the noise, the unit stopped mining. After a factory reset and reconfiguration, it was back up and running smoothly.

Next Steps and Future Plans

We plan to move the S19j Pro into our shed and add proper intake and exhaust systems to keep the temperatures stable. In addition, we’re currently evaluating whether the unit’s fans should remain on or off, given that we will be using inline fans on both sides of the unit.

  1. Good work, never heard one ramp up before, they all sound the same running but i was waiting for the seatbelt sound, thanks mate, cool to see

  2. Where’s the ac in-line fan you had connected to the s19 in the mining shed? Was it damaged in the fire or was it a question mark todo with the fire so it’s retired?

  3. THM awesome 👏 great to know the replacement unit is working perfect! Man at the start at the video I was a little worried lol,
    I say to setup the miner as is (well some TLC) keep is stock as is mine on it capture the temps with stock fan then do the fan delete mod etc.. this unit is using a different model fan than the S19j 104T model so this is good data to capture, I have over 30 BTC miners but never really capture all the different fan model performance, just take it slow this time around! Truly enjoy your content!

  4. currently have no idle hardware! Sick video as always! Lol hi Jean! I was wondering if you'd sell those open air aaawave rack or at least one?
