Will this work in the same USB block with an Antminer U1 running on cgminer?

I don't see why not. Most miners work happily together. Mind you that this one has a big cooler, though, and might take two USB ports, if the ports are too close to each other.

Yes. I use a single instance of cgminer v3.9 with multiple USB blocks that include antminer u1s, bpmc red furys, and block eruptors.

Test4echo3 is right. You can use a USB. I think it is more reliable when you use TPM chips though. It is not going anywhere when it is placed on the board

Yes, you can run multiple AntMiner U2 devices on one laptop. However, you have to consider the physical space limitations. Since U2 devices include a large heatsink, you may not be able to fit two of them into two USB ports which are immediately adjacent to one another. For a tutorial, you can look for setup and configuration guides for the AntMiner U1, which will also work for the U2. Here is one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=406149.0

It will still only operate at the 1x slots speed. 1x can handle 250 MB/sec vs 16x which can handle 4000 MB/sec. This is fine for mining coins because you don't need the bandwidth. For actual gaming though you'd probably want to put your card into the 16x slot and not the 1x slot.

They are compatible in the sense that they can be running separately, and connected and running in the same stratum proxy for a mining pool. But the hardware is not interchangeable.

Yes, but only the v2 bugs will do the loops. Any nano bug can use the basic tracks. The tracks all have the same connector.

well seek for 2.1 barrel 12v and i dont know other but normally use in led monitor or cctv and try ask in electric hardware shop or you can just buy 3 barrel plug in 6pin PCIE adapter but dont know if work on dual mode. I just use for scrypt mining only use PCI-E adapter coz i have a ton of psu :)

bfgminer (all your other setup options here) -S antminer:all --set-device antminer:clock=xCODE ...and substitute "CODE" above with one of the following 4-digit hex codes. See key below: 0981 = 2.0GH/s 0A01 = 2.1GH/s 0A81 = 2.2GH/s 0B01 = 2.3GH/s 0B81 = 2.4GH/s

Long answer: I was lucky enough to have my USB ports on my desktop pc close to the PC's power supply fan outlet. So it actually blows a continuous stream of "coldish" air on the ASIC miner. So I don't use a separate miner. It's been running 24x7 for about a month without any issues. But it does get hot when running without a fan, and electronics generally don't like getting too hot. So I imagine the life time of the device will be shortened if it's running hot all the time. These devices are quite new and have probably never been CE approved or similar, so basically no one knows for sure. But I've yet to see any reports online about ASIC miners catching fire. That's a good thing. Also a cheap ebay or china USB fan is probably not CE approved either and not built to run 24x7 as is probably just as likely to burn :) Short answer: If you have any kind of circulation and make sure the two miners are not close to each other (causing heat to build up) I'd not be that conserned about a fan. There is a heat block on them. But if you dislike having hot things sticking out of your computer try to give them some kind of cooling.

If that is all you are running but my advise is to total everything else if there is other things that will run along with your antminer it has 480w

No it doesn't. but it does work with bfgminer and cgminer. i can teach you how to use it. all items come with instructions on how to use.

Yes you can mix them together, your miner will pick them up, as each port will speak with the host machine independently.

i am mining on slushes pool at 30 to 34ghs on low clock and getting 4% of a bit coin a week. i dont know if you can solo mine but odds say it would be pointless.

yes it is - what you are seeing is that as the newer miners come out the older miners drop in price - but you have to acct the electrical use- U1 will max out at about 2.2G tops - U2 - will get up to about 2.5 - maybe 3 if your VERY lucy... the twin furys seems to do great with cgminer at about 5G each - I hope this helps - cheers and keep on mining before its outlawed

my experince i bought on butmine has been down,but i don't believe even usb 2.0 worked good but i could be very wrong,as can't remeber for sure sorry but don't believe you would have usb speeds going into a 2.0 usb

U1 miners have a stock speed of 1.6GH/s. U2 miners have faster stock speed of 2.0GH/s and a larger heatsink to disperse the additional heat generated at faster speeds. U2 miners are also easier to overclock.

If you have the Cummins software, yes. I use mine with Insite, Calterm, etc. It does everything that Inline can do. It's basically used in place of Inline. You can just use it with other software where Inline is only for Cummins. When you set this connector up, select RP1210 adapter and in the vendor, select Nexiq Link. On the next one, select USB and you're setup. The adapter comes with a manual for all the programs that explains how to set up the adapter in them. Best adapter I've bought yet! Way better than Dearborn, Inline, and Noregon DLA.
