good pdu

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.

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 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.

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?

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.

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?
