    Massive Water Cooling Setup Suggestions Welcomed

    This is flat out wrong. an 8 ton will adequately cool the 55000btu this farm is producing. read: through-wall not in-wall. Did OP mention what he's paying for electricity costs? The water cooling setup would eventually cost less, but it would have to be close to a year depending on OP's...

    This is not for bitcoin mining, but for litecoin/scrypt mining which is more resistant to those type of devices (as such, none are available yet). Nobody mines bitcoins on gpu's any more.

    The Bitcoin market has crahed, get ready for a flood of cheap cards on eBay.

    Massive Water Cooling Setup Suggestions Welcomed

    You should consider a through-wall air conditioner (ie: condenser outside) that can do about 100k BTU (this will give you room to grow, and it will be more efficient at 50% duty cycle than a 50K BTU at 100% duty cycle). a 100K BTU through-wall air conditioner setup will run you about $3500...

    8x 1TB 840 Evo? why not.

    Just got 8 evo 1Tb drives, set them up on an (admittedly bottlenecked) dell H710 - in an R720 host. Current setup is R6 w/8 drives (~5.45TB available, 128kb block size). The end use for these drives is as an esxi host datastore, so it will be running several databases and webservers on a...

    Samsung 840 EVO 750GB

    I just got 8 1tb evo's, they're every bit as good as the 840pro's, better in some respects. Write endurance hasn't been measured by anyone yet to my knowledge.

    Non-enterprise drives in software raid..

    Well, here's the deal: 34x 2Tb sata drives on 2 controllers (set up as non-raid) and put into a soft raid 5 with 1 hotspare array in linux (likely centos). Firstly, should I be concerned about using non-enterprise class (ie: no TLER) if it's not on hardware raid? There will be a good amount of...
