I Spent $21,000 to Buy these 2 Crypto Mining Farms!



I flew out to New Orleans, to Buy what remained of this GPU Mining Farm. and on the way back stopped by a 2nd Farm in Texas, and ended up Buying 37 Octominers! Thanks for Watching!

What’s up miners it’s D Jango and in today’s video I’m going to be visiting not one but two mining Farms that have been off since the merge uh now both of these Farm owners are actually subscribers of mine they reached out and they were like we got some cases a bunch

Of other stuff you might be interested in and you know I love road trips and you know I love going new places and meeting new people so I planned it all out um I’m out here in New Orleans Louisiana and I’ve been to Louisiana before but I’ve never been to New

Orleans and it was super fun to hang out with some subscribers and you know check out a new city and you know just hang out and have fun talk about mining so here I am at their farm and uh there’s a ton of stuff here uh originally they

Said you know we got a bunch of cases but when I got here I mean look at all this stuff so many open frames motherboards power supplies pdus everywhere um so this was quite a big operation I think they have over 50 cases and I mean there’s like 25

Something open frames there so this was like a 75 rig Farm you know during uh pre merge here so I can’t believe all they’ve let this stuff sit here for two years so uh it’s great for me because you know they’ve had it sitting for so

Long that they just want to get rid of it gave me a really good deal and so I ended up buying everything I I I came for the cases but I mean all the stuff was just he I got I had to buy it so you

Know me I love auctions and and uh buying stuff in bulk so I figured I had the truck and so I might as well do it I ended up picking everything up for about five brand so if you think about it I got uh 50 cases so it’s like I paid $100

A case and then got everything else for free or I mean you can look at it like I paid 50 bucks a case and paid 2500 for the pdus the motherboards psus and you know the frames and everything so I think it was a pretty good deal um the

Cases were in a little rough shape than I wanted but I I think the deal was worth it there’s over uh 20 something pdus here and so uh you know 20 pdus I I have NOA I haven’t G I didn’t go go through I kind of just packed it all up

I tried to keep it all together you know pdus together motherboards together power supplies together kind of all there and I packed it all up nice really nice and tight I didn’t want anything like vibrating or moving around while I was driving um my plan was to put it all

At the front of the truck and then uh use the cases to kind of like hold everything there and I put it really tight like I put the cases up against the stuff really wedged it there to keep all that stuff in the front from moving

And I had to uh leave a little bit of room in the back of the truck because you know my next I’m stopping in Dallas Texas which is on the way uh back so I I barely have enough room there I got like 4 and a2t of room there and so all right

Well I’m on my way to Dallas and I hope that I can fit the rest of this stuff here uh another subscriber of mine has 37 octo miners that I was interested in here here they all are right here and these are all used but they were like in

Pristine condition I mean these are like brand new because they were ran in a data center so they’re like super clean clean Ultra nice I mean look at that there’s not even any dust on the fans so what’s that like you know what I mean um

I picked all all those up they wouldn’t let me film uh you know for privacy reasons which totally understand so uh I’m on my way back to the data center now U I end up getting all the octos I think there’s 37 octo miners uh I got

Like a case of like two or three cases of of spare ventage fans both those boxes right there you see right there both of those are like brand new fans so I got over 100 plus Ventus fans and then about 40 power supplies uh bonus power supplies for the octom miners P paid

About uh 460 bucks a case comes out to around 16,000 than I paid for the 37 octos which quite expensive octom miners are really expensive they’re just super nice I probably won’t buy any more octom miners but I did want to get a nice chunk fill out another whole row of

Cases so I mean if I need any more cases I probably will need a few extras um on buying some cheaper cases I’m decided to test these uh eight card risal cases out I have a I have a brand new one that I’m going to do a video on and kind of

Compare that because I did that server case last time with only the six cards I’m going to kind of compare how these ones are but I got them all I got all these cases really cheap so uh I’m hoping they work out really good for me and I was getting everything unloaded

Here using my pallet jacks and uh dollies to get everything out of the truck uh make sure you guys are following me on X I did actually a little $25 giveaway to whoever could guess how long it would take me to unload the truck um so I mean if you’re

Not following me on X you’re missing out on that uh those giveaways but yeah anyway so I’m I’m here unloading everything it took me so uh long to upload all the loose stuff like over an hour for just the loose stuff which is crazy um but yeah I’m kind of got I

Don’t really know what’s all here I’m I’m kind of just I bought all this because it was a good deal I’m not really ready to go through it right now um I had a bunch of other stuff I got to do on the farm but here let’s uh

Get the camera and let’s take a closer look at what I picked up here all right here’s all the stuff right here I got it all stacked up in the corner of the data center there’s the farm for reference of the building so you can kind of figure out where it is

But I brought down some extra shelves so I can get a whole another shelf set up over there uh I apologize for the shaky camera guys I did order a gimbal so next video I will have some nice steady footage but yeah here we go so got a

Whole P Jack of octos here everything in these cardboard boxes those are all octo miners as well and then I got all these here so I think there’s 37 I didn’t count them but 37 38 I think but yeah here’s all my fans that I picked I was

Telling you about I got all these like octom Miner fans these Venus fans right here which are really nice so I got a whole box right here plus both of these boxes are also full of fans so a ton of spare fans and there’s all the power

Supplies all the octomer you know server HP psus for the cases and then I got like a ton of extension cables and like like whip extensions as well those are going to be really nice so this is all of this was in Dallas and then the rest

Of this is all New Orleans so check out all these cases here now these cases are in a little bit of a rough shape but they all have the motherboards and power supplies with them so uh I don’t know we’ll get into them and see how well they are I mean

Even if a couple are broken that shouldn’t be that big of a deal but I mean these guys must have been running these like in the actual swamp cuz some of them are like got like weeds and bugs and dirt in them but others are like like really nice so something like this

One right here this one looks really nice and clean so I don’t know I’ll have to go through these and check them out I did get two brand new ones so thesea these right here are brand new so I’ll make a video on just these cases and see

Tell you I let you know how I like them and what I think about them um we got some more pdus back here so these will be nice I haven’t used any of these big long pdus before they’re like the same capacity they’re like 30

Amp PL like 30 amp pdus and the little ones I use are 30 amp like these ones here are also huge these are 30 amp as well but I mean mine are like half this size and they’re the same so these are huge but I got a ton of I mean they work

Though I mean they’re just going to be big and bulky um tons of like power supplies in this thing lot of server style server ones with breakout boards I’ve never really used breakout boards before so this will be uh fun to test out and use tons of Parts here risers I think this

Box is full of motherboards um I don’t know I haven’t I haven’t opened it here’s all the open frames right here and there’s all there’s like nice frames and then they’re mixed with all types of frames so we got like these traditional Vendetta frames which is what I use and

Then you got like these other like half ones they’re weird but all these got motherboards and power supplies got a couple like little rack ones and homemade ones then I got let’s see these four a wave frames never used these before they look kind of nice looks like you can fit

Lots of gpus on these but each one of these has uh two 1200 watt psus there there and there so there’s eight EVGA psus 1200 watt psus right here alone so I’m interested to see I got more motherboards power supplies this whole box here is full of motherboards we got

A ton of these riserless boards here a ton of all riserless boards I mean we got an Asus 390p Z here I mean this whole box is Big it’s a big box full of boards so I got to dig that another box of power supplies

Here uh I mean just on the top there’s a th000 watt EVGA one there’s another th000 watt evj one right there so tons of psus in here I don’t even know what this is is but it looks cool it’s got a butterfly on it and this last box has more pdus in

Them all right what do you guys think you think I got a good deal I mean all this stuff here all the way to there was like five grand and then the rest of the octom miners were 16,000 I think uh think this is going to do me really good

I think I’m probably done buying octom miners though uh I just wanted to get a bunch cuz they’re super nice and uh yeah so I bought as many as I could and the rest are all getting any cheap cases but I’ll let you know what I’m doing I don’t

Have really a time to go through that all that right now and put all those into cases what I need to do first is I need to build a hot cold dial I think it’s starting to get hot in here so what I’m going to end up doing is I think I’m

Going to build a like a hot aisle around this rack here and then once that’s all built I’m going to take these two rows of open frames down and put my other rack that I have build another rack here then I’ll put all these into the cases and then put

All those cases on the rack and build another hot coal dial so yeah so that’s what I’m going to do first hot coal dial then uh then put them in the cases and I’ll go through that at the very end all the other stuff but yeah I going to be busy I’m heading

Home right now but when I come back I’m going to build that hot coile so don’t forget to like And subscribe thanks for watching guys I’ll see you in the next video

  1. man finding these kind of deals is almost impossible in uk πŸ˜€ or europe πŸ˜€ that octominers are steal. assuming you will get rid of the open frames completely now. Amazing buddy amazing! if you want to sell some of the vensus fans would be happy to buy 10 πŸ˜€

  2. Heck yeah man tons of good stuff, had a guy up by me that was selling off all his octminers too, but they were rougher shape than the ones you got. Didnt have the cash to go pick them up though. Never stop building/hashing!

  3. Great content!!! Love seeing these acquisition & build-out videos! You seem highly motivated, hopefully you have help while scaling up & don't always have to do everything solo.

  4. willing to sell 140mm ventus fans (straight cord?) octominer seems like they're out of business. cant get replacements anywhere.

    awesome score man excited to see your farm moved largely in to the cases!

    your content is still my fav, keep it coming! πŸ™‚

  5. As a small miner, with under 100 gpus I love those aawave 12-gpu miners. They are compact and also stack too, so convenient for those of us with a limited space in the garage. haha

  6. Those APC PDU's both (double stacked and long ones) are likely networked/managed. If you care to tinker and setup outlets, you can remote power cycle your rigs remotely. Good Score!
