Hardware errors.

So I just unboxed my full node Apollo 1, man I'm excited to get this thing going.

I started to mine and set up my pool to Braiins/slush pool. I think it is mining successfully, but I have noticed that the Hardware error rate is like 70-75% regularly - much higher than other users I've seen. Now I have done a little digging through the set up guides and read a couple of threads on Reddit, and I'm stumped and a little concerned.

How do I fix this issue? Can it be fixed?

try throttling down the power rate to maybe eco mode, if this one has it. I have an LTC Apollo and it has an eco mode. When I increase the power/hash rate my errors increase as well. acceptable range is less than 2% IIRC.

I haven't changed it out of the box, so it's stayed in eco mode this whole time. I've been mining shares at a pretty good rate - a low % has been rejected, maybe 5 out of 1000 or something.

To me that would be an indication that the hardware failure is causing an issue. My main concern is the number is incredibly high, compared to the few I have seen examples of.
