Who will buy this junk ?
Wow thank you all for the answer I think I will just sell it and get some GPU's and begin mining. What do you guys think about this guide (http://www.cryptobadger.com/build-your-own-litecoin-mining-rig/) I want to follow to mine other currencies by joining a pool that switches to the most profitable coin of the day? Is this worth my time and effort?
Thank you all for your very quick responses.

Dam it I was really hoping this would go through, but thank you for your fast response. Other than selling it is there anything at all mining related I could do with it? If no mining at all is possible there has to be some other application for alternative currency related I can use this hardware for to get some money from.
Short answer? Just sell it and don't even bother.Long answer? You have a few options:
1) Find some altcoin that can only be mined by CPU. Primecoin comes to mine, but you won't make hardly any money from it.
2) You COULD buy a pair of GPUs, some riser cables, a second PSU, and run some GPU Scrypt action.
3) Use it as a controller for a bunch of USB ASICs for BTC mining.
Almost all 3 options have better alternatives if you were to sell it, and buy newer hardware that would do a better job.
great post but even better gif man had to complement the bruins gif
Best analogy is that you have a warehouse full of old-model pickups and want to compete in Formula One.
Those Dells have some grunt, but are power-hungry CPU only.

A Dell PowerEdge 1800 with a 2.4GHz CPU? You can't really mine anything on that. You're best bet is to sell it on ebay, and buy some dedicated hashing hardware: either a GPU for Litecoin or an ASIC for Bitcoin.

Very sorry guys was out of town both for work and new years. Ok so the10,000 server deal was off, he didnt want to get in trouble at work but we have access to three of these on there own.
Once again sorry for the delay in reply no need for facepalms

And why should I care? I'm not being scammed out of anything more than 30 seconds per day.
there 10,000 in the room and the room was intense to say the least.
How big is this room? I doubt 10,000, though it's quite possible as we still barely know what we're dealing with.
rofl his name is hankhill69 and u think he is being serious... facepalm

I forgot to get pics(I had to be working at the same time) but they are Dell P1800 servers what do you guys think apparently there 10,000 in the room and the room was intense to say the least.
Thank you all once again.

Same here. That being said, that's not that much.
Hi Everyone,
I work in finance not a computer whiz at all but I got a buddy who has 240 gh/s dell server, what can we do this if anything at all?
Thanks everyone,
Hank Hill

My money's on 240gh/s actually being 2.4GHz.
you can probably play Duke Nukem on it. Bitcoin mining, not so much.
Sorry for the vague details both my partner and I are finance guys and we are going to take a look tomorrow at it and will post back with details. Sorry for the vagueness I am still learning computer science this stuff is intense, but changing it changing finance I got to be in the forefront of this.
thank you all
Post a photo or two of the rig and I'm sure you'll have all the major components, hash rate specifics, etc. spit out by a fine member of the community within hours I suspect thank you all
*Assuming this isn't a misunderstanding of some sort. Find it kinda strange for finance guy to be looking into purchasing a mining rig...unless your getting a sweet deal on it. Anyway, good luck.

i didn't know dell made ASICs, i highly doubt it's actually GH/s
A server's a server. It can do most hash calculations, though at varying speeds. Try mining both (not at the same time )and see how your luck holds out.
I'd be more specific but the details you give are too vague.

It says 240 gh/s now can just mine scrypt coins or are servers only for SHA-256
Mine, and hope to pull a profit. Install a miner like CGminer or for Windows GUI people, *shudder*, GUIMiner, and set it up to use a pool like bitcoin.cz.
Anyway, are you sure the server is really 240GH? It's more likely 240GB which has nothing to do with mining power.
