I've got 6.5 TB distributed between 2 HDDs and 1 SSD (on the PC I'm using).
-
Two primary miners (photos next week)
-
Home built server, 10 * 4TB drives, 143GB SAS OS disk, 60GB SSD Swap Volume, 2 * 1TB 2.5" drives. Dual 6 core 4120 AMD Opterons, 32GB RAM. Also mines on NiceHash.com via video card (R7-370).
-
Frankenstein Server: HP Workstation with 32GB + 2 * 6 Core Xeon E5649, R9-280X GPU - runs VMware, miner is a VM that uses an external storage appliance for capacity - also mines Eth via pass-thru on the GPU.
-
Storage Appliance for Frank: Head unit - HP DL380 G6 - 32GB, Dual 4 Core Xeons, Internal Storage: 143GB SAS drive for boot, 256GB Intel SSD for caching, 6 * 1TB data disks, External Storage SAS linked drive Unit - 16 drives, 60TB capacity. The head unit is running Oracle Solaris, with the storage configured as ZFS pools/volumes with the SSD as ZIL/SLOG, presented to the vMware host over 40Gb Infiniband.
Also have my CloudMiner - 13TB (to be expanded to 20TB) in my colo hosted cluster in a box. Supermicro system. 4 Supermicro blades in a 2U chassis. Each node currently dual 12 core AMD Opteron 6234 with 64GB RAM (expanding to 128 GB in next couple of weeks), 7.5TB storage. One node is setup as a storage appliance like the one above, it is used as shared storage for the cluster - one link via 40Gb Infiniband, the other two over 1Gb ethernet. The cluster runs the *.burst-team.us servers (Including this one we're on)

I currently only have 2 TB HDD. I want to invest more into Burst but I feel like to get a good profit out of it you have to spend thousands and then earn back the money
-
@mathew - stalk ebay, high capacity drives do become available for low prices and allow you to build a high capacity farm on the cheap. But yes, at current prices there is a long ROI - we're working on the price though.
-
@haitch What would you suggest is a good price for a drive on Ebay? What could I use to run the hard drives besides my pc? Is there like a hub or dock I can plug them into?
-
@mathew - I look for drives in the $20/TB range - external USB drives are going to cost more, but I have plenty of slots to make the drives internal.

Currently, most of my HDD are $20 SGD per TB or less. :)
Am from singapore, but i am stalking ebay from the states too haha..
Really hope burstcoin price will go up soon..haha den we can cut short on ROI
@mathew , i am looking to explore using a twin dock farm. Maybe you can consider it.
-
@BurstL0rd Where are you guys seeing $20/tb? I have been looking on ebay and the cheapest I have found is around $40+
-
@mathew , im from singapore, so i hunt around the IT forums every 2-3 hours to look for acceptable ones. and normally they do have HDD ranging from $20-$25 per TB.
-
@mathew - Patience. They appear - and sell out fast
-
Well im looking at this dock to help setup a 30GB farm.
15pcs in total.
-
Took me some time to figure out my setup, but here we go ...

@luxe wow. How many terabytes and do you solo mine?
-
Those are all 4TB drives, and yes I'm mining solo. Guess even with 20TB i would go solo.
I had 2 PCs running for some time, my goal was to attach all drives to one PC to save some energy. Turns out that mainstream Power Supplies can run a lot of GPUs but are not made for 30 Drives start reading at the same time :-)
Finally i found 2 older ones with enough 5V power. Before that i had some trouble with that issue.

@luxe Whats the average time for you to find a block?
