There was a typo in the Sierra size as suspected; e-mail as of a couple of minutes ago says: 17 x 16 x 7
This has been corrected in the previous post

The distance between bolts (the two flanges on the front of the case have holes for bolts) is 18 5/16" on a standard rack, therefore the MAXIMUM width of a server is 17 3/4" or it does not slide in. FYI: http://www.server-racks.com/19-rack.htmlClearly I'm looking at the dimensions of an abnormal server rack (maybe an open rack?), then. Anyway, I sent an e-mail. No, I believe you have been given the incorrect dimensions by someone who was careless and also knows nothing about what "standards" are in the industry or they would have caught their error. This does not inspire confidence. Not to be a total dick here, but if they have decided to hire you as the go between for them and the forum, you need to have a slotted time each day to ask questions on the telephone. Emailing a company that is non responsive to email is not helpful. At this point right now that would mean basically not getting any answers, as my e-mails go to one of their PR people and then it gets bounced to people all over apparently in the search for answers. I can ask my contact for their phone number or skype or something if you want, but if I was on the phone with them it'd probably be, "Okay, I'll go send a message to so and so about this question." |

Advertising a 750k market cap in under 2 months is quite the claim
Well, the money supply increases rapidly, so I would suspect that present shares factor in the creation of future shares. So suppose they sell for $1 per ProtoShare today... that would imply about a 750K market cap... we shall see what people are willing to pay for them  Uh.. you're using this as the distribution scheme? It's just going to get destroyed by botnets and server farms like YAC/etc did, and with the reward algorithm being the way it is it'll be hard to sell this distribution to people later. |

so no picture of anything?
Not that I've been given, though I have asked for one of the PCB or a drawing of the PCB. |

Yeah, I don't plan to tell you guys anything too crazy beyond what the company tells me and I'm sorry for confusing the fiat/BTC issue with the MPP. I'm also not really here to Josh it up and promise two weeks and a personal visit from Santa Claus with a bag full of ASICs at the end of the next difficulty period.
I AM here here to write scathing e-mails to HashFast when they make it hard for their customers to want to purchase their products, as I think their business and all of our personal investments will fail if the customers can't see value in what they are doing. And I've done that already, and I'm still trying to pry the information you guys (and I) want from them.
Are you sure about the dimensions of the sierra? It is Sierra: 17 x 16 x 14 44.5 pounds? I thought it was 4U? That would be 7" in Height... Double checked the e-mail and that's what is given -- I think 17 might be a typo, though. The board dimensions just got to me and are stated to be 4" by 12". I do not want to be a total jerk here but I asked for something simple like dimensions over two weeks ago and when the company never answered I had to ask taco. When people buy a rackable product, you need to know dimensions as racks come in various depths (standard dell servers are 18" to 27" DEEP so you can get racks all sorts of depths). I do NOT want to buy 1M deep racks and have to reach way into them and I do not want to buy racks that are not deep enough. 4U is 4U, one of these numbers MUST be 7", but if the board is 4" X 12" it is hard to see how the unit is only 14" deep given the fans and the radiators are shown in the picture. Yeah, those numbers don't make sense now that I look at the rack specs. 20.5 (482 mm) is the width of a normal server rack, which is given for the BJ. None of the other numbers conform to a normal #U size. I'll pass another e-mail over. |

E-mail says "Case Dimensions"
The weights are pretty impressive, too, I imagine a lot of it is the water coolers

People who bought before August 15th and are looking to obtain a refund, HashFast has told me that there is internal arbitration going on for this matter and that a decision about whether or not you will be able to refund your purchase will be made by Monday.
I'm sure I'm not the only one waiting on this.. Indeed. Any news taco? They told me they'll know later today about the refunds. Here are dimensions/masses of the units themselves: - Baby Jet: 21.8 x 8.3 x 20.5 22 pounds (standalone)
- Sierra: 17 x 16 x 7 44.5 pounds (4U 19-inch rack mountable)

I'm interested to see how things play out for the pow algo.

I just started looking into HashFast company.
On there website I can see that if I order today, i will be part of the third batch.
But I see that there's still no shipping date for batch one.
After batch one is shipped, is there going to be a break until batch two is shipped ?
The company hasn't specified the delay between them, but once ciara gets chips and pcbs they should be making and shipping at rates of more than one thousand units per day. |

Personally I vote for "DOOMXtreme"

All my orders have shipped! ! Thanks Dave!  guys it would be cool if you would put down a small review with pictures of your new hardware I will! I just assembled a "box of fans" in my guest bedroom (I hope guests appreciate the electric heating this winter), and I'll be putting the hardware online when it gets here Wednesday |

All my orders have shipped! ! Thanks Dave! What order number or date did you purchase this? Trying to figure out where they are in their shipping sequence. 26x 2xx 3xx 6xx They were all shipped together |

you wont roi if you get it by end of year. even if you got it today you might not even roi. we had 1 chance of roi and thats why we bought it. shipping said late october. most the money would be coming in from then till now. and difficulty rate rising tremendously makes it even less likly to roi.
If I got it today I would definitely ROI, in fact I would hit about a 60% ROI according to http://mining.thegenesisblock.com/December is iffier and it depends on what kind of rate increases we see and how sustained they are. The current network growth is not sustainable though (keep in mind we've gone from a 110 nm process to a 28 nm process in 10 months time, and the rise in hash rate reflects this). The next stopgap half-node is 20 nm, and I don't think any fab is there yet for large scale, high yield production. http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/other/display/20131022230815_TSMC_Shares_More_Details_Regarding_16nm_FinFET_and_20nm_Progress.htmlSince HashFast is already working with TSMC, I would guess they'll be one of the first companies to produce on 20 nm as die shrinks (if the company survives that long, things are getting cutthroat). Please cut the propaganda. Nobody will have access to lower than 28nm technology before 2015-2016 even and it will be damn hell expensive. Also there are many other companies that are already working with TSMC (Avalon, ASICMINER, KnC etc) so i don't understand why you praise HF so much. If they can get it then everyone will get it. Okay Next year TSMC will make over thirty designs using 20nm process technology, which it calls CLN20SOC with HKMG. Moreover, since there will be multiple fabs producing chips using 20nm fabrication process at TSMC, the ramp curve of every design as well as revenue share of 20nm technology will be faster compared to those of 28nm process.
Specifically on 20nm we have received five product tape-outs and scheduled more than 30 tape-outs in this year and next year from mobile computing, CPU and PLD [programmable logic device] segments. And all those tape-outs represent big volumes. Design ecosystem on 20nm has been validated in real products and is ready to support customers. Yield learning is in line or better than the 28nm path. We expect a fast ramp of 20nm next year, with revenue from 20nm in 2014 bigger than that of 28nm in 2012. You see 20nm will be starting next year whereas 28nm actually started in the fourth quarter third, fourth quarter of 2011. So the corresponding point for 28nm was 2012. But our ramp in 20nm in 2014 is going to be faster than the ramp for 28nm in 2012. While our 28nm ramp was a record for TSMC, 20nm ramp will be even faster by about 30%, said Mr. Chang. DnT claims much longer, which is good because it means your products will be profitable for longer, wherever they came from. |
