Re: [ANN] Spondoolies-Tech - Best W/GH/s ratio

I talked to a DC in Iceland and they gave me a price of 95 EUR per kW per month. That comes out to about the same price.

Last quote i got was 78 /kw for small customers, ofcourse this only gets cheap if you order multiple racks (ideally a whole DC container, then they can give you all the cooling you want)

Let's start working some details with them and then let's start a Group Buy for hosting. I am sure that there are a lot of small miners in Europe who would love to colocate their rigs if they will have nice price/kw.

Excellent! Strength in numbers. I like it

(Let me know if you need help)

Thank you for the support!

Collider how would you feel contacting the DC again and start discussing some terms?

@DevonMiner my August SP30 units will be hosted in the WA DC. Don't like it? Or just want a DC that is closer to home?

@bobsag3 keep us updated while we wait for some prices

Its tricky I've been looking for colo for around 6 months, and there are stirrings of interest.

bobsag3 has the right idea really, build your own, forget about all that raised floor, hot/cold aisles, 47U APC racks, redundant diesel generators etc etc. This bitcoin stuff is short term. You just need a well ventilated warehouse with decent aircon and flow. Get industrial shelving to put the miners on and make sure you have enough electricity to keep it going.

From humble beginnings they have come a long way.
Then:

Now:

+1. colocation is expensive as hell. who cares if bitcoin miners lose power or ethernet for a minute here and there - pretty much every single ASIC is capable of rebooting/reconnecting and theres only a few minutes of lost hashrate - compared to the massive premiums of diesel generators and massive battery banks.

how are people planning to handle summertime in these small DIY warehourses? AC adds about 30% to your power (IIRC?), so ideally outside airflow would be cheaper but extremely limited when the temperatures outside get above 25 C (~80F)
