Please note all photos below are from a forum member that chooses to be anonymous.
I host 3 s9's with him and he sometimes sends photos of his newer gear.
I think it is of the s17pro 50th model not sure about that.

I asked him for power numbers which he will email to me tonight or tomorrow. edit at least 10 days for power readings

s17 db reading

77db



speed choices set to normal



55th



2 plugs

I have the same db meter. With an S15 and S17 running both on turbo I was seeing 90db. It goes up to 100db when the S15 fan speed spools up. S17 is higher pitched, but fans don't fluctuate constantly like S15. Changing S17 to low power dropped it 10-12db. I am going to keep the S17 on low power or normal because it's way too loud on turbo.

This is S15 and S17 in turbo. You can't even really hear the S15 over high pitched S17 until fans spool up:

He set his range to 80 dB and I believe gear is at normal speed.

Try one of your s17s on normal speed and range at 80 dB.

As I see specs turbo looks to be really hard on  unit with not much gain in hash.

But this is not my gear as I was not able to order on in first batch. Since then I have decided to not purchase any new gear from bitmain.  I will buy used s17 from forum miners, but not from bitmain direct.

Some images of my s17 as promised.

The range on the meter is just the min/max it will register in 16db increments. If it's set to 80, it won't read higher than 86db or lower than 70db. I switched to normal speed and there's not much difference in sound compared to low power mode. Will be keeping it set there. I'm seeing around the same db as him with the S15 running at the same time. It only goes above 80db when the S15 fans fluctuate every minute or so and essentially same as second video. I switched the range in that video from 90 to 80 because it dropped below 80.

Thanks for posting the images behalf of that user, and to the others posting your results. I'll update the Competitive hardware thread now that I've seen it, using advertised numbers.

Now I haven't really followed this much, the hard 240V warning for me is a no go unless I delve into hosted gear. Is the 2 plug option necessary or is that just optional for feeding the PSU from 2 sources? I just find it weird if you have to use 2 power cables, when the power draw doesn't appear to be that crazy even on turbo mode. I'm sure I'm missing something just thought I'd check.

Not surprised by the dB, I'm anticipating something like this for the M20 and am trying to build a decent dampener to remain fairly under the radar.

Oooh shiny, a nice uptick for NastyMining.

Here's some more pictures/packaging. I may do another review like I did for the T1.





They're quite the masterpieces. Definitely loud, I'm a fan so far. Pun intended

[kodokbuduk]

with 2 plugs, how you guys power up? any on/off switch on the psu?

No switch. I plug into PDU that has switches and turn those on/off.

With these first deliveries now i want to see global btc hashrate in these days....
Now is 45,867,201,622 GH/s

My two are on the way!!

What happens if you plug them with the wires energized? When you plug the first and then the second.. I don't think this should be done, but given how some people operate their mines...

Next experiment; Would it turn on if you used two 120v from different phases (would it get the 208v from the two hots?). Theoretically speaking, of course, don't try this at home, in the name of science.

I had an Italian stereo amp it could do that use two 120 volt circuits from separate legs of a USA circuit box ..

Back in the 90s maybe I could find a link to either speaker builder or stereophile.

Yea i want to know, since it has two plugs, what happen if you plug directly one cable first to power point (the psu wont turn on?) and then the second cable (then the psu turn on?), so no need PDU switches.

[MoparMiningLLC]

that is also why i put switches on each circuit - I like to turn them on one at time, instead of all at once.

[minefarmbuy]

Maybe a switched pdu is best.

Good pricing on these.

Got my first S17 Pro (50TH model) up and running.  As smooth of a startup as typical with Antminers.  Just plugged in both power cords and viola.

I've only tried "normal" mode so far and I'm getting 51 TH on average and about 2050 Watts measured with my smart switch.  So right at 40 J/TH efficiency.  The noise seems similar to other antminers.  Not noticeably louder to me but then again I have 40 antminers running in my garage so I probably wouldn't notice.  And I haven't tried turbo mode.

Edit1: Turbo mode results: 57 TH, 2500 Watts - 43.8 J/TH.  Pretty impressive! And not really any louder that I can tell.

Edit2: Low power mode: 40 TH, 1540 Watts - 38.5 J/TH.

Below is a pic of it and the dashboard.  I'll be trying the other modes when I get a chance.

could you test how much power each cord is pulling on normal and turbo mode?

Next batch is back in stock, shipping in a week.

T17 is also out, 40th/s, 2200w, 55j/th. I think it uses S15 chips, just more of it.

i can dig that price on the T17 - still wish I could just get a bunch of T11's for cheap though - no tariff on those so quicker ROI for me. Now, if Kano pool could hit a few blocks before they go out of stock or if I could get someone to buy my S9's for 150-200 each I would be able to get some new mining gear.

[minefarmbuy]

People ask us for s9's all the time. We just started our escrow service as well. T17 yea looks like s15 for sure. Are you talking s11 or T15? either way Bitmain confirmed the 17 series is all they are producing for the moment.
