most likely it was friedcat shooting it with his ion cannon from outer space!

Damn! Feeling for those guys.. Surely you'd choose a less hot & humid spot for a DC?

But that's where the good beaches are.

You guys probably never thought of this but i bet the fire started from the collapse of those shelves.

A quick calculation shows they load 600kg per shelf.   pure stupidity

 Each rack has 1800kg = boom

Why? That looks like pretty decent pallet racking. 600kg is nothing, you can safely store twice that or more on a single pallet.

Yeah..... no A 42U server rack is alot stronger yet would never support such weight.

Those 4 legs wont like constant 1800kg 24h in a hot environment.
 

If the rack can support 1800kg with ease then there is no reason for them all bent up and collapsed.

Those pallet rack at Homedepot look alot beefier yet i doubt they hold anywhere closed to 2000kg 24/7. They're alot BIGGER too.

why the fuck would you make a DC in bangkok! where is 28 degrees Centigrade at 9AM, right now!!! WHY!!!

Miners don't particularly mind hot ambient, and because you're not running AC neither do you particularly. Instead of replacing the air with an infinite amount of 20C air, you're replacing it with an infinite amount of 30C air.

You're kidding, right?

Max Capacity 3500kg per shelf, up to 11,300kg for the whole unit.

No saying that the shelves couldn't have collapsed prior to the fire or been installed improperly, but saying loading pallet racking with 600kg is stupidity is rather silly.

I'm not sure how it would start a fire. Any units with decreased airflow would throttle down before totally giving up mining [I believe], so where is the ignition source? Doesn't seem to be anything which would readily burn nearby them even if burning hot SP30s were scattered everywhere.

But anyway, we can ignore that as a possibility because we can see the majority of the shelves are in tact. If that picture was the epicentre of the fire then things wouldn't look at nice. Probably their huge supply melting/shorting.

Now why would you want that? An increase in temperature means a decrease in GH/s.

Why would europeans move to a place with a hot climate and expensive electricity to start a mining operation?

It's a bit strange considering they could have hosted the hardware at Verne Global for half the cost of electricity in Thailand and that includes ~30C cooler air + an actual datacenter with fire suppression/security systems.

Cost of employees, cost of electricity, cost of buildout, electrical capacity. Who knows.

yawn..... thats why when we built out 2 MW , we did it right .... our next 10 MW will be even better.

you do cheap shit work, you get cheap shit results. sadly, few investors get the difference. oh well , cowboyminers, if you need some local factoring on Barter Exchange hit me up.

[Fabrizio89]

Wow... I saw the drop in hashrate and I thought exactly this, but it was just a random thought, never expected such a disaster. I'm really sorry for you guys and your investors.

What facility?  provide links?

[Marvell1]

Im surprised its in Thailand. They dont have good electrical rate at all.

My guess would be laundering money for triangle drug lords ( Myanmar, Cambodia and Thailand).

ding ding ! I bet that's what it is as well.

Anyways back on topic seems that the last firmware update broke my sp30  it cant seem to connect to any pools
any ideas ?

Again ? Please stop it. I can't reveal customers information, but it's complete nonsense.
Their electricity cost was ~7 US cents for KW/h and they had planned to reduce it to below 6 US cents.
One of the oldest ASICs mega mine in the business.

Untrue. On a sidenote, I've seen your question about the evaps after RockMiner released picture of AMHash.
Most of the Chinese farms started to use similar evaps after Gordon Ao (Innosilicon CEO) visited Cowboyminer facility early this year.
