According to this page:
http://terrahash.com/?product=4-5-ghsec-module

It looks like you are planning on selling a 4.8GH/s ASIC miner for BTC1.99? (16 chips * 300 MH/s each)

At today's rate of 117.00 that is ~$233.00.

How much for shipping?

Do you have any details/ideas about cases? What else will be needed to run these units?

Thanks for the reply. I will be purchasing ones already put together and may or may not send my chips to you seeing as I have an odd number. Thanks again for the info!

I'm interested in this project as well. I have a few questions about ordering though. Since I was in 2 group buys from zefir and ordered only 20 chips, I would need an extra 12 to make 2 units, would you be willing to sell these to me so I can have 2 complete units? My chips are in 2 orders from zefir and would probably ship out at different times. When you guys open up orders for board production, how will orders be queued, on a first come first served basis, or will it be based on that as well as when you receive our chips? It would seem somewhat unfair if I purchased 2 boards and you didn't receive my chips for weeks, but on the flip side it would suck if I ordered the 2 boards and got in a fair queue and something go wrong or delays between you guys getting the boards. I know this is common sense possible risks I am taking by venturing into any company, but would just like to ask anyways. Good luck!

Will you hosting service of large DX nodes only allow fully populated models are you going to allow partially filled as well?

We will host partially filled as well, but the price is same.

makes sense because they have to assemble all the other components, capacitors and such, and run it through the reflow oven, and then test the board.

Will the DX Mini and DX Large products be modular enough to allow future extensibility through later purchases of their respective module boards or will they be locked down to only support the number of boards they are originally purchased with?
 
IE, will a purchase of a DX Mini with 5 boards provide hardware that has the capacity to be later upgraded to the full 20 board capacity with purchases of compatible modules later on down the line?  There’s a really large slice of ambiguity on your website there, ‘Can contain up to 20 boards’ doesn't indicate if every product can do that, or just the 20 board product can do that.  If they are indeed modular, will end users be able to add capacity with purchases of later module cards without soldering or is diy a factor there?  Just how end user friendly are they?

Maybe it’s just me but I need to be absolutely certain about what I’d be getting, even if I have to look silly in the process of asking.  But… maybe think about throwing up some diagrams up for anyone that’s especially anxious / inept at deciphering the current statements.  Even a little bit of the unknown in this is harmful for you and if you can indeed provide a platform that allows miners to scale so easily - i think you'll certainly have something that some of your competitors are missing, certainly unique at this power and price point.


Yes, the DXs are truly modular. You can buy a DX with only one board installed, and buy additional modules later and install them in it.

outstanding!

I too found this a bit unclear on your webpage. Overall, it's a nice, clean and easily navigable page, but it could use some revision in the descriptions. I know you're still developing, so this part is more of a "wish-list" item, but when available, can you post up pics on the page? Even prototype pics would be useful (and titillating...)

I am interested in this:

http://terrahash.com/hosting/

Can you explain it a bit more please?


Quote
The hosting charges are as follows:

4.5 GHash modular boards: $3.00 per month per board.
18 GHash modular boards: $10.00 per month per board.
TerraHash DX Mini: $30.00 per month/unit.
TerraHash DX Large: $50.00 per month/unit.

How many accounts do you expect to get onto each 4.5GH/s board?
If I pay $3.00/Month as suggested above, what is my ROR? How is this calculated?
Can I rent the entire thing myself for $x per month?

So you want Bkk to perfect his design without sample chips, so you can use his design to make money?

I figured to purchase a lot from you, but now I highly doubt that I will purchase ANYTHING from you.

Good luck with that mentality.

I don't see it as hostility at all.
But ducks rightly are known as ducks, correct?

Terrahash wants Bkk to do the heavy lifting for them.
Their 2 full orders worth of sample chips won't be going to Bkk.
I find that telling.

Why the concern about what a customer thinks?

I am not compelled to turn away silently from what I consider a shitty deal.

Why are you so concerned for their feelings?



You sound angry and confrontational about things that are non issues. If bkk had any problem whatsoever with people using his designs he wouldn't be publishing them on the internet.

Q. Are you going to design your own PCBs?
A. No, we will be using BkkCoins' Klondike design. We are already in talks with him for a bulk order. But of course, we are still waiting for specs from Avalon, before he can finish the design.


As it is open source they could quite easily, legally, and technically ethically (developer was the one to make it open) take those plans, commercialise them and sell at 100000% markup without even informing him. Instead they're voluntarily offering to licence em and are in talks. They've got no obligation at all to do this!

Seriously why the hostility?

If you read my original comment correctly, I said "license the design from BkkCoins". We will either buy the boards from him, or license his design. In any case he will be making money from us.

Your original comment went something like...
" A. No, we will be using BkkCoins' Klondike design. We are already in talks with him for a bulk order. But of course, we are still waiting for specs from Avalon, before he can finish the design."

... so, do let us speak about accuracy, reading comprehension, integrity and industrial paracitism.

It sounded like Steamboat would be providing some of his batch samples to BKK.

My guess is that BKK will have more than enough samples with the number of folks who are planning on solely using his design.  Other folks who are looking at home grown options will necessarily need their own samples for their own proprietary solutions.

Of course us in the peanut gallery love the open source approach, but it isn't the only way... and those other options may have longer "dedicated" support.

I am still planning on getting a K64 board or two from terrahash if they are able to stick to their price guidance.  I will also be looking at who else is making boards (sensei?/steamboat?/viceroy?/etc.)
