2mw x .8 = 1.6 megawatts
Why did you multiple 2MW with 0.8? Does 0.8x used to consider PSU efficiency?

The staff issue is actually a big one.
You will find it difficult to find trustworthy people to run the mining facility.
Mining is all about generating money, so most people have few qualms about getting a hold of some of that ...
One simple example (that I've seen) is the staff redirecting some of the miners to their own mining accounts.
Another is using the power with their own miners.
Another is staff getting (illegal) kickbacks from ViaBTC to have miners on ViaBTC.
Another is staff (unnecessarily) given access to the pool mining accounts and fudging things there.
Generally you need to lock down the network in your facility and limit access both ways - to the miner and from the miner.
Of course you also need the usual firewall stopping all remote access to miners.
You also need a mining account that gives different owner vs staff level access to the mining data and account.
There are of course various ways to handle this.

2mw x .8 = 1.6 megawatts
so 3k watts x 500 = 1.5megawatts
so you may be able to run 500-550 not 650
the s19 exhausts 500+ cfm. so 500 x 500 = 250,000 cfm
this means you need
30 of these
https://kn5.ada.myftpupload.com/36sf8n370-shutter-fan/
along with a way to let air in.
All rough numbers but kind of what you may need for what you want.

30 x 700 = 21000 for exhaust
metal filters for intake help
https://www.cartergoods.com
gold merv 8 washable
you will need a lot of them for intake. maybe 60 of them.
so 60 x 60 = 3600
duct work will be needed.
a lot of cabling is needed.
a lot of shelf maybe 15 sets of them.
they need to carry weight well.

these carry 600 pounds that is 20 pieces of gear per shelf so 25- 30 sets
30 x 220 = 6600
so
6600 = shelf
3600 = filter
21000 = fan
power cables are complex a lot of ways to set gear up with cables but 500 of them will cost
pdus will cost
I run 60-100 units of gear we have spent a lot setting up a warehouse .
you may want to go the container route.

I think the hangar is enough as long as the space is sealed and if you know how to filter the air in and hot air out with proper ventilation.
About staff I don't think you need many staff but I think 3 or 5 staff is enough.
About the app or tools to monitor them awesomeminer is known tool but there is a free one from Bitmain from this link below

Hi everyone,
I'm thinking running a hosting facility as I have access to very cheap elec (1cts $/KWH). I have approx 2MW available now and probably more, elec is from grid. I have a 800m² hangar nearby the transformer + 3000m² open air secured property.
I was wondering what is the best option. Should I run couple of "ready to go" mining containers or is it better for me to set up the hangar as a mining place and run the miners inside the hangar?
Also 2MW is approx 650 S19 miners. Do you guys have an idea how many staff 650 Asic require in terms of basic hosting?
Last but not least, what SaaS/app a mining facility is using for their client to monitore the miners?
Many thanks for your feedback,
L
