Hey, I got a Bitmain Antminer with an Amlogic control board. Can I switch it out for a BB board? The Amlogic doesn’t have an SD card reader. Or can I just flash it using a micro flash drive? Got one that fits the Amlogic board. Thanks for any help!

What model are you using? S19, S19 Pro, S19 A, S19 K, S19 J, or S19 XP? Gotta know that before we go further.

It’s an S19 90th model, and the PSU is APW121417 version B.

From what I see, it might not work. Check the compatibility on this site. They have a rep here who can help. Honestly, I’ve swapped controllers before and they don’t always work as expected. Sometimes they do when they shouldn’t.
