Title: [SOLD] SP30 hosted at Toomim Bros in Washington state, USA
Post by: mdude77 on September 26, 2015, 02:30:37 PM
As the title says, I'm selling my SP30 hosted at Toomim Bros in Washingon state, USA.  It's paid through 10/10 @ 20:51.

It's running underclocked at 2.85TH/s.  According to Toomim support, one Loop (5) is having problems, so it's not fully functional, just mostly functional.

I'd prefer to sell to someone who will continue hosting at the site so we don't have to deal with shipping, however I'm open to shipping as well.

Can do escrow with Toomim if you like.  Feel free to contact support@toom.im to confirm I have it and am selling it.

Make me a realistic offer.

What's the power usage and monthly fees with everything on that unit at that colo?

According to Toomin, at the current hash rate it's using 1.63 kW AC.  I don't know what it uses at "full blast". 

Per their hosting site Toom.im, they charge $95 a month per kW, so at the current power usage, it works out to $154.85/month.  Price/month decreases if you pay in larger increments, as shown on their site.

In retrospect, if you have cheap power, you can probably come out better running this yourself than hosting.  I've never had the funds available to pay for hosting more than one month at a time, which obviously is not the most cost effective way to pay for hosting.  It's not feasible to run it where I live for multiple reasons including heat and electric cost.

And 95$/kW/Month is also pretty expensive, it would cost 35$/kW/Month to run in Québec in your house or half that in a data center. If the noise is/wasn't an issue i'd totally run this at home, though looking at the power consumption, its probably 240v. Unless the PSU takes 120 also, it wouldnt work out here.

I believe it does use 240v.  Toom.im is a datacenter.  I'm very happy with their service and highly recommend them.  They have cheaper rates if you desire to pay in larger increments.

Revised to clarify that shipping from the facility is an option.

Any idea how fast it would hash at full speed with the faulty loop?

At full blast it seems to run around 4 TH/s with one loop disabled.  Toomim reports that it's a bit unstable at that speed and may not be able to run for an extended period of time at that speed.  It may be more stable at lower temps if you have them available.

The $95/kW you are currently being charged (that any purchaser will have to pay if the machine isn't shipped) is ridiculously expensive given that there are a number of hosts currently offering prices that START in the $60-$70/kW range (which blows toom.im's BEST price of $80/kW out of the water). You're probably going to have to ship it if you want to unload it.
