Great topic and photos. With all these fans exhausting air, do you not worry about security? I.e not only someone trying to break in to steal your GPUs, but people breaking in thinking its something else (Cannabis farm etc.) ?

ROFL...

The only fan seen at my place is an exhaust. However, it's in the back of the house facing the back yard which is also fenced in with a 6 feet high fence. The other fan for intake is underneath the deck and NOT seen while also being in the back yard. If ANYONE is in my LOCKED fenced in back yard without my permission, they're risking getting shot.

My weapon of choice: 30 caliber that also shoots arrows. I would prefer to use the arrows on an intruder to keep the noise down from waking up neighbors. It has one scope for .30 caliber pellets and another scope for arrows. Two different barrels: One for .30 caliber pellets and one for arrows. The barrels simply screw on.

Video (Time stamped to 492 seconds) to show you the difference between this and a bow. Much more accurate than a bow and it's explained why: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_DsjavaufI&t=492s. There are also other toys at the house ALWAYS on the ready against "would be" intruders.

It also helps having a WIRELESS security system MONITORED by Simpli-safe. https://simplisafe.com

I have the same WIRELESS alarm attachments for windows and doors placed on the fans on exterior walls. Meaning, if someone TRIES to pull out or push in an exterior fan to get into the mining room, they set off an alarm just as if they opened a door or window.

My dad's mining room is in his garage and NO WINDOWS. Hence, the exhaust to the attic.

How do you like the Simpli-safe system? My house is already wired with an alarm service, but i'm looking for something to monitor the windows I had to use has intake/exhaust ventilation.
