Title: Electricity and Internet is free in my Dorm
Post by: BTC-TMXSTAR on November 03, 2015, 10:35:18 AM
Hi everyone! :D I know this is a dumb question

What do you think, can I bring my miner in my Dorm? I want to take advantage for what I pay. The owner saids that I can bring whatever I can bring.

Im the only one in the room, The Room is kinda empty even I got my desktop PC. Ventilation is ok since I got this ventilation hose.
The hose looks like this ---->http://i01.i.aliimg.com/img/pb/163/505/215/1242145352497_hz_myalibaba_web8_586.jpg

Or, I will just leave it on my house?

Btw, Can I make my miner run quitely?

Thanks advance
and
God Bless!!!!!

I am not sure what miner you have but you can try replacing the fan with an ultra quiet fan if it is too loud.

i would leave it in my house, your residency may notice the spike in electricity usage and may investigate

I agree with the investigation part. But personally I would still bring it and use it for some time. Maybe it goes by unnoticed... And if the people doing the building maintenance aren't really tech-savvy, I guess you could sell it off as an UPS or something ;)

I think this is a great idea as long as you can get past your network firewalls provided by the dorm.  If you are able to do this, I would get two or three miners and have them set up.  Just make sure you use a good cooling fan to keep it all cool.  Good luck.
