I am selling a Chia Farm and Plotter on behalf of a friend who has moved from the UK to Australia. I’ll try to answer any queries as I can, but here’s what’s included:
Fractal Case with Corsair RM750 PSU
Rog Strix Motherboard with Ryzan 5 CPU and 64GB HyperX RAM and ASUS GTX1060 GPU
5x 4TB WD Red Drives + 1 disconnected
3x 12TB WD Ultrastar Drives
2x 8TB HP Enterprise Drives
6 External Drives:
1x Seagate 1TB
1x Seagate 4TB
1x Seagate 8TB
3x WD 12TB My Book
Accessories also included:
Small LCD Screen
Wireless Mouse and Keyboard
Assortment of cables, such as power and display.
I think the crew is used to $10/TB and the free computers that come along with all the people bailing out this last year. I bet you guys can make the sale though, some of these posts linger for a few months and it’s exactly what someone is looking for. The 8TB-12TB drives for example are generally my jam, but I’m on the wrong continent. I say hold firm, you’ll get a bite - a 100+TiB farm will have a buyer.
The problem is that small drives are just not profitable to farm given the cost of power in the UK, even an 8TB disk is borderline non profitable last time I saw any reports. The rest of the hardware is pretty basic, nothing really special.
I know it’s more work, but you’d be better off selling it piece meal.
Personally I wouldn’t bother with anything less than 16TB, I sold off my smaller drives a longtime ago.
If your willing to sell seperately id pay £8/TB for the 8TB or 12TB Drives, do you mind saying what county/region you are in and if youd be happy with collection?
