okay 128 x 1500 = 192,000 watts

you can just about do 4 units per pdu.

You need bigger pdu's then the ones I gave you.

There are some 50 amp pdus around

more costly but they should do 9 s-9's

Thank you...So if I just use the ones with the 4 it will be much cheaper. I will be able to use 2 of those to plug 8 units for just 80 bucks where as this 50 amp one costs 299 dollars and will house just 9 units...I think that would be okay, right?

good pdu

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-HP-EO4501-Server-Power-Distribution-Module-228481-002/232449268221?

good rack
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Commercial-82-x48-x18-6-Tier-Layer-Shelf-Adjustable-Wire-Metal-Shelving-Rack-76/311864355012?

What psus do you have?

The pdu is for 220-240 volt.

Do you have a 220-240 volt circuit ?

That pdu has a l6-30p plug it can do about 5200 watts safely

You can run a lot of gpu rigs on it.

Thank you...I will be using the PSUS for Antminers provided by Bitmain. So this should be good for those? I am planning to run 128 of them in total.

The racks are far from fragile. Big or small they are quite sturdy. As see in the pic each shelf has a lip perfect for attaching things to including drywall if desired.

Those were 1kW stand-by UPS's. The old S1's only drew about 450w and at the time power at home in my area blipped off-on at least 1 once a month so it was practical to use them. Now days with miner power needs over 1kw I would not advise using UPS's unless absolutely needed. Just too expensive.

For racks, just use normal wire-frame racks available from Home Depot etc. like these which are 20" wide

Very old pic - those were s1's...

Thank you. I like the mesh ones but the thing with those is I am not sure how to create a hot and cold isle with that. Since the racks are a little fragile there is no place to put the drywall to contain the heat. Do you make containment aisles in your new ones?

P.S. What's that thing from Tripplite?
