I see 8.9BTC not 6.6BTC.

you are mistaking my post on bitmaintech's hashnet division.

they are offering 10th for 6.66btc

they opened the cloud contract and the beast miner on the same day.

I purchased the cloud contract as the beast will not work for me until winter power rates start in OCT

It is not cloud mining contract.
This is a BTC loan with very small percentage .

Exactly! I don't see any benefit in helping give Bitmain an advance on their operating costs. I enjoy mining as much as anyone.
But only if after the principal is paid you walk away with used S5's or some collateral, other than that it's a loan.

[2 is fine, still only about 165W per PCI-E.

So each of the 9 hash boards draws about 330 watts apiece?

So the remaining 500-sh watts is for the fans and the controller?

So how many https://bitmaintech.com/productDetail.htm?pid=000201505040743496917U7kGsCm0694 does it take? Also how many PCI-e cords does each one have?

It seems like it would be 3 of those. But I could not tell if they had 6 or 8 PCI-e cords from pictures.

12x PCI-E

Thanks! Could not find this. To bad they did not make it only use 2 of these PSU's it's close on watt's.

But I guess PSU's were not big decider on when they made this unit.

You can use as many PSUs as you want as long as you don't have multiple PSUs powering the same individual board (of which there is 9).

Do all PCI ports need to be powered? Or will it run with 2 on each board?

2 is fine, still only about 165W per PCI-E.

Can this be rack mounted? Does anyone know? Looks like brackets on the front sides but they seem funky

Please folks -- ears on rack mount chassis are NOT the only thing you use to mount them! Or better not be.
All heavy rack mount gear is supposed to be sitting on a support shelf/brackets. The ears are mainly only to keep them in position.

Anyone know if the S5+ is strong enough to be placed on rail style shelves? Or does it need to be on a full shelf (i.e. supported across the middle)?

It's hard to tell from the picture how physically strong across the middle this unit is. Is it really just 3 units bolted together, or are they integrated in a single piece of sheet metal?

Now that I look at the dimensions though, I'm not sure it's wide enough for some rails. Looks like it's only 14.6" wide.

BITMAIN please offer the option to split this into 1/3 miner with these specs: 2.6TH@1150 watts for about 800 USD.

Is very easily doable with the design of this since its essentially 3 miners stuck together.

this spec is for upcoming S7? probably...

There are other things you may find which are a priority for you, but fortunately both of those guys are very helpful and most importantly honest. They will tell you if you pick something which doesn't make sense even if it costs them a sale. You cannot buy that kind of honesty, it is there or it isn't.

Wow! Thanks for the great info. Very helpful.

I'm in the US. If I go through with this then the S5+ would be in a data center, so fan noise isn't a problem. The louder the better Wink

Since noise isn't a problem and I don't need anything fancy like load balancing, it's looking like a pair of 2880 watt units might be the way to go. But I'll also take a look at what gekkoscience has. I'm already fan of theirs (ordered my sidehack sticks minutes after they went on the market).

So we need to buy 3x PSUs to power this thing?

Or just two of these https://www.protact.net/netzteile/6/servernetzteil-mit-2.250-watt-und-12-pci-express-stromanschluessen?c=8 (I am guessing).

I don't think you can use only 2x PSUs. According to bitmain's product info

Quote

Do not connect more than one PSU to the same hashing board!

You can use as many PSUs as you want as long as you don't have multiple PSUs powering the same individual board (of which there is 9).

Do all PCI ports need to be powered? Or will it run with 2 on each board?

Strange, I am trying to place an order for upto 10 s5+ but it's stating it's out of stock Sad

((

Shows out of stock again. It might have had some saved in carts and released them causing a small second time of showing stock.

But now I'm just getting out of stock.
