create a miner in a 2.5inch sata or sas format and update the mining software so we can plug in 24 at a time into an off the shelf 2U server and use the sas/sata bus.

Wishlist:

USB to update firmware
Ethernet for connectivity to internet 1G
Powered by PSU
Stand alone miner (no host PC necessary)
Config over http to web app on miner
Ability to configure primary and fail over mining pools
Ability to send email if/when miner experiences exceptions (power lost, then restored; network connectivity issues; pool connectivity issues; lower than expected hash rates -- which may hint at hardware failure) as well as periodic email of vital stats (avg temp, aggregate run time, hashrate over time, power consumption - instantaneous and over time, more)
Upgrade by adding more modules
Starting hashrate of 8 GH/s

Hi Yohan,

Understand you guys are busy with other projects, but just wanted to check in and see if the Cairnsmore2 project is something you are still considering or not.

Personally, I would prefer to scale a mining operation with the design path you outlined in this thread, and so have been holding off on other options. So it would be great to know if you still plan to pursue this project along the time frame originally outlined, or if your thinking has changed.

Thanks!

We are still considering it but the time frame is very moveable. Current loading on other projects is significant and that will contine for at least a couple months and nothing will happen until we are clear of that workload.

At this rate, I believe that Enterpoint have so far made a good standpoint and will outpace other bitcoin manufacturers such as BFL; in terms of customer satisfaction and quality! I understand that you guys are a manufacturer and sell at a greater scale, but if bitcoins do pick up at a faster rate, people will bank on price, trust, support and quality which at this moment, Enterpoint has it all!

Litecoin could be a killer app. Although it might be better to make a separate product - since you'd probably need ram and stuff that you wouldn't care about for Bitcoin.

Yeah, I'd be interested in a 1 Th/s miner. Would also be interested in smaller miners from you guys at lower price points as well.

Any news on stock with Cairnsmore1 or 2? Just showing an interest on proven FPGA technology than (vapourware) ASIC Wink

Other that the current preorder on CM1 no formal news as yet on what we will do with CM2/3/4. We are currently in the middle of what is an important major launch of an important non-bitcoin product and everyone here is involved.  Hence everything else, including email response, is on slow turn whilst kick this new product into life.

We will be trying to catch up this weekend on the preorder depositits and other equiries so we will try and get back to everyone so do bear with us whilst we catch up.

None bitcoin product can you provide me details of this ?? Are you referring to LTC?

I think Yohan might be referring to other FPGA applications that exist in the market; bitcoin FPGA mining has become part of the FPGA market for now. FPGA technology can be used for a number of High Performance Computing (HPC) applications. To name a few here, such areas are bioinformatics, brute force cryptographic analysis and AI applications such as image processing, amongst many others.

I love the idea of something around the 5GH mark, if you retain a similar pricing structure (bulk discounts) and modular ability of the cairnsmore 1 then it allows people of all levels to get involved, and it's great you are in the UK

Needless to say this will all depend on the cost, but very interested.

The Carinsmore1 is the only FPGA that keeps on pumping out constant rate mhash compared to other FPGA's I bought.
Imo the Ztex has not failed me yet. Which other fpga's did you buy.

Great company with a great product! The Carinsmore1 is the only FPGA that keeps on pumping out constant rate mhash compared to other FPGA's I bought. Their customer support is stellar and their product rocks. If these guys were to produce ASIC hardware I would be all in!
