What are the enclosures over the miners? Just sheets of aluminum?

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in
Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it
will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Here's my little setup... Oh what's that on the top shelf? Could it be the S2? Take a guess.
Nice duct setup behind the antminers.

Well since the picture has 6 racks of four, 6*4 = 24, I'd assume 24.

Crov how many Ants do you have bro? 7 the now - had 14 but sold a few - Looking to set up AntFarm soon, just waiting on Bitmain getting a shipment ready for the 28nm chips Business model on S1 or S2 would be short lived - invest into the latest chips As Silver said yeah not my photo just put it up here and linked the user in More than happy its a sick rig i must say

It's light sheet of aluminum but it goes all around. 120mm fan at the back of each of these in push/pull setup. Aluminum case keeps ambient temps down. Nice duct setup behind the antminers.
Thanks. It's a Vortex 475CFM inline fan. Extremely powerful. I have it distributed behind all miners including the KNC and that suspicious looking miner at the top. My guess is I get about 70-75cfm per vent. They all get vented out the window even in -20C.

But do the antminer temps go up?

Yes, by 1C-2C so not much at all. I think temps are going to get higher as it gets warmer outside.

^the design is really nice, but what the heck is with the fan setup? you have 3 exhaust fans that are trying to handle the airflow of 6 big delta fans (that are pointed at eachother on top of that?)
The use of the fuse board is neat - I have a few of those with me now but didnt see much benefit in useing them, espescially considering any risk of the open terminals being near so much metal and wiring. (might be worth putting plastic tips on the unused terminals?)

So i got this case and fitted 2 antminer s1 in it. Now i need rail slider, can any body tell which rails to get for this case? It's kinda heavy with 2 antminer s1 in it so I think I should use rails. link: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147155Let me know, thanks peeps.

Building a bigger, better anthill now that the weather is getting warm and I cant fit anything else on my limited apartment circuits. You can see a before-and-after: went from a storage area in the back of an office to what will become a high-capacity rack. 2x L6-30 circuits (213V, 30A each) - Currently using an unmetered PDU with C13 outlets 1x L21-20 circuit (120V, 20A,20A,20A) - Currently using a metered PDU with L5-20 outlets 1x 5-20 circuit with duplex outlet approximately 15kW of power available under 80% rule of thumb, with about 4kW of equipment once I move a few more things in, a bunch more antminers showing up thursday, and leaving lots of room to grow. Not sure what I will hit first - power limits or cooling limits (industrial 600V A/C) There is a 1200W Corsair PSU, plus 3x 835W server power supplies wired up and ready to go. All of them will use 213V power for a bit better efficiency

The exhaust fans simply redirect the air up and out, they are handling the flow well. They are static at full speed while the antMiner fans vary as need be. The pics with "open" tips was temporary as all 36 spots are utilized in final assembly. This unit is heading for co-location in the morning, but run steady @ 48C in a lab with an ambient temp of 90F. I know NOT happy rack has been delayed, but all will be happy in the morning.

Im picturing a server rack as best as I can, and generally the airflow is designed to either go out the backside or to go out the sides. If you stacked several of your units, there would be a pretty insane temperature gradient with all the airflow pointed vertically

This unit is going to go into the top of rack where I have a 2U exhaust fan to evacuate it from the rack. Interesting side note between the bitfurys, BFLs, KNC, and the antMiner, the antMiner handles heat the best and I saw a decrease in hash when I reduced their op-temp below 40C. Thanks to BitMainTech's new 1TH/s this will be the only 6 * S1 unit I build... well I do have coupons..

Sure I'll take a pic soon, I tested in my room with 2 antminer s1 in the server case and it overheated and shutdown. Maybe I should just put one in? Maybe If it was a datacenter it would inhale the cold and exhaust the hot air and it wouldn't shutdown? I don't let me know what you guys think of putting 2 in a case. Thanks.
