Considering, shipping is included, it's isn't so bad. I wouldn't buy it tho. I would prefer to get a new one. (Like buy 3 SP20, sell the 2 others at cost price)

Considering, shipping is included, it's isn't so bad. I wouldn't buy it tho. I would prefer to get a new one. (Like buy 3 SP20, sell the 2 others at cost price) I had the same plan. With another party go in on the Nano farm. Whoever is taking two gets it shipped to them, then the cost of shipping the single unit is divided by 3, that amount is added to the total price of each miner. New gear, free ship, great price. Have heard / been warned that if you do this and have an issue Spondoolies will likely give you warranty grief. This is just second-hand, I can't stand by that statement. VERY happy with the S5's and Bitmain. You mentioned wanting new gear while OP said maybe you don't... I wanted NEW NEW NEW until I thought about it a bit. If you buy a TV or laptop or bitminer if it is going to break it usually does so shortly after setup or in the first month. By having someone else plug it in, have it mine, show low temps and all 0000000's, and hit the speeds it should, that's likely a good miner. No DOA / warranty / shipping / lost time mining. I digress... back to me! I want to swap the fans to get a bit quieter, having a hard time deciding on the Noctua fans. Should just step up and put 3k rpm Noctua fans on it, maybe a 2k Noctua fan out back. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) The S5 setup was so easy, and I'm computer declined. Having run S1's the S5 was like riding a bike. I bet myself I'd have it up and running in 10 minutes, nailed it. They are at 350 running 1.15+ each under 50 degrees across the board. Go miners go.

How would things work if you bought two out of three machines from a nano farm? Wouldn't you need to have them shipped to two different addresses? I don't think SP allows that

Bob gets 2 miners, Tony gets 1 miner. Spondoolies ships all three to Bob, who then ships one to Tony. The cost of shipping from Bob to Tony is divided by 3, and that is added to the cost of each miner.

You are likely talking about Bob & Neal. The two really nice guys from SanFran you met in that bathhouse? But, that Nano miner (how do we handle shipping of three units to two people?!) logistics question was tough for sure! Happy I could help you out.

I think the price is too high... but FWIW Scythe and Noctura fans are great quality and very quiet.

bumping with new price $440. S5 PLUS extra two low noise fans at ~$38 value per each miner. Fans (Noctua and Scythe ultra kaze) provide same speed and MUCH lower noise. Shipping to US included.

Ordering Noctua Corsair SP120 fans tomorrow for my pigs. Hope to stumble on some extra money here in a bit to buy your machine. GLWS... seller is a good dude, talked to him a few times. solid kit.

I'm curious if you'll sell these for $420 shipped to Canada (Toronto). Failing that I'd take them for $410 shipped to Washington State.

Let me know how the SP120 upgrade works out. I'm assuming you bought the performance and not the quiet editions? I've been thinking of doing that upgrade too so i'm definitely curious!

Let me know how the SP120 upgrade works out. I'm assuming you bought the performance and not the quiet editions? I've been thinking of doing that upgrade too so i'm definitely curious! For sure! I must give credit to OP Biodom and Dogie for help. Biodom knows his shit and I want to buy that miner. Somebody better hop to before I feel better and buy some coin. He's got the right fans in there, no doubt. I went the slightly cheaper route as I supplement with a small fan and don't overclock. Looked hard at fans and was thinking CFM was the ticket. Really static pressure is the goal. In another thread (mining, hardware) I questioned Dogie and he said these are his go to fans when shutting up a miner. I did go with the SP-120 (3k rpm) high performance. They have a level lower with lights but those won't do the trick. I supplement my cooling with a small Honeywell Tornado fan and sometimes a box fan for general air movement. At 350 inside with stock fans and my extra fan on low I stay under 50 degrees. Sorry to plop on your thread, OP. I may be the one that buys it so... hey! Cut me some slack. Whoever buys the miner is getting a great deal. Having the fans modded and the machine run in is ideal (to me). glws
