QG

No back up power.. what is the power stability like.  Daily brown outs would annihilate any mines I put there.

180Kwh with full support services included.

" 4. 24/7 Staff will monitor your rigs and hash rates and check any that have stopped hashing and or are performing low. "

How would you monitor the hash rates? Does this imply that the miners would have to mine at your own pool or through your own software?
- We would monitor the hash rates in several ways.... 1. We can script it (were VERY good at doing this sort of thing) 2. We can watch your pool login for you and monitor your workers 3. We always put all rigs on a NOC whats-up display so if one stops pinging it will sound an alarm and our guys will check the rig.


My Questions:
1. What rates are you charging per KWh of electricity?
180Kwh with full support services included.

2. Does it differ between Mexico and San Diego?
Yes, in my San Diego DC2, I charge 220.00 a KWh but again, full service. In mexico I can do 180Kwh full service.

3. Also what is the base monthly hosting fee?
180Kwh and 400.00 per cabinet.  Bandwidth for miners are included up to 100mbps. (mining takes very little).


4. Why not have a UPS as a true backup in case your facility experiences a power outage? Or do you plan on compensating for that lost mining time?
If you want to pay the enormous amount of money it would take to install a UPS capable of handling 5Megwatts, sure.. but no miners I have met
want to pay MORE on anything.  it takes a significant Non-Recoverable Expense to get all that done and miners are very cost-conscious.  Now, I do
own a center with a 2 Megawatt UPS and Generator however for me to give that type of power would be alot more costly for miners, however if
someone desired this I would consider working on a price for them in one of my redundancy centric facilities.  Maybe months ago it was profitable
enough to have UPS but the longer time goes on, the less sense it makes to spend MORE on mining rig co-location fees.

Without this very basic information you won't gather very much interest.
- Agreed, I was hoping questions would pop up so i can answer them. Didn't want to be too spammy.

I'm frankly a bit surprised that you're actively mining today. The difficulty is set to rise >30% in a few hours.

How safe are the miners in a datacenter in Mexico?
