Yes that is it. This is what I gleaned from that abortion

NA, soda glass ranks to 34-year-old lawmaker, guard of the warehouse. Revealed that before his accident, and friends. Guard, 2 people on call had come during the night, and then approx. They smell smoke it.

Whatever. Owner seems rather cavalier at this loss. Perhaps it beats a bullet in the head? Banging the Mayors Daughter perhaps? Wifey? After all it is not his money that is lost.

If you bothered to attempt the read the Thai news article Guy posted via Google or Bing speak, you will note a or the security guard caught or intercepting two people lurking around the place in the wee hours just before smoke was smelt.

Some one owe some one a packet of cigarettes perhaps? Late on a payment maybe?

It never dawned on me to actually read that.

My guess would be laundering money for triangle drug lords ( Myanmar, Cambodia and Thailand).
NO. Europeans that relocated to Bangkok and having fun.
Good people.

ofcourse ppl that deal with you must look legit. you think they would invite you to their fort with armed guard?

Please stop the conspiracy theories. Payments were done in BTC.
I know their story. Again, good people. Bad luck.

I don't think LUCK is the right word.  They were really pushing it with that density.  It's like driving your car at 400 miles an hour and crashing and saying you had bad luck.

Im surprised its in Thailand. They dont have good electrical rate at all.

My guess the reason for the fire is in the word "Thailand". God knows what they think is adequate electrical code. Looked like millions of dollars of SP30s were hosted in a chicken shack. I hate to say it, but I'm not shocked at the outcome.

To be fair, most of the farms in China aren't much better. Unfortunately this may not be the last we hear of this sort of thing happening I fear. Some would feel a certain Dat0rhall in Iceland would have been a more poeticly just location... But I somehow think that the arctic was a better choice than the equator and that they are more scrupulous about their wiring.

2) 2.6 mil in grow lights
3) Move wattage to grow lights
4) ROI = guaranteed
5) If it burns down at least you're high

You said you know their story, does not make it truth.

Whatever.

Sure you can turn your eyes blinded now. I just hope you were not fooled by bad actors.

Do you even know what industrial electricity rate is in Thailand?

Do you think someone would throw 7+ million dollars into a business yet they dont know how to do cashflow calculation?

Go ahead and tell me what story they feed you.

It doesn't though does it. With Thai power rates + hardware there is NO chance of ROI if you aren't cutting corners somewhere (laundering money, 'free' power, etc.)

DC's will be thinking twice before allowing people to host this gear now, at least at unrealistic densities. Imports may receive greater scrutiny.

I'm not thinking twice about it.

I bet the fire started in their electrical infrastructure -- transformer, distribution panel, etc -- not in a power supply or a miner. There's not much flammable material inside a miner. However, they may have installed a transformer near to a wood wall, then overloaded the transformer or wired it up without adequate fuse protection.
The buildup was definitely not according to US electric code
When you were showing us this Data Center on September 5th did you have concerns about the wiring then? BTW I wouldn't expect them to be up to US electrical code since they aren't in the US, their local jurisdiction will have authority over this and their own standards.

Sadly enough. I know in Thailand, Information and Technology department must give you license to run DC type business. I bet they dont have a license since their buildings is remote. Look like they will face charges and penalties.

Gone from 1.3x to 1.5x 1.665TH and climbing now, back temperatures gone from 37 to 67°C 77°C!
Keep your room cozy and warm in the winter ...

I am going to have to do something about the fan though, this thing is loud! Louder than all my other miners combined.

If I can't do anything about it I'll have to sell it I think Sad


This is the fan used in the SP20.. beast of a thing!



Damn, fan uses a 4pin PWM Graphics card type header. Going to have to get one of these if I want to try other fan types:

Holy smokes that is a lot of hardware to go up in smoke.  It's a tough time to be a miner as it is and if this went up in flames without insurance...ouch.
