Hi all, my name is Rich from Waveform Technology (from the chat QG posted)..
Just wanted to introduce myself, offer assistance with any questions regarding our hosting if needed.
Also of note..
"Told him to get him as far away from the venting as possible"
That means warmer air and less hashes, but also lower power consumption.
Just wanted to mention two things on that.. The thought of moving the spoondoolie away from the cooling vents was that of the customer. The customer in question was led to believe (I'm not sure if this was from a spoondoolie rep, or another spoondoolie user) that the hash difference was minimal, so his goal was to keep cost down by saving on the power needs.
I would want the closest to the vent as possible to hash the fastest way.
And thus the nature of this beast! Sacrifice hash to save on power, or get the hashes and pay more in power?
Typically, in a data center (at least, good data centers) it should be hard to find a "hot area". It's pretty unusual to get that request. haha
Currently, we don't have any spoondoolies here (yet), but i'm intrigued by them and can't wait till they start coming in so we can see what they do in the different conditions!
Rich
