🔥【Unboxing Review】#doge# Volcano D1 16.2G is here! A new monster for multi-coin mining, is it worth entering a position?
Recently, the water-cooled servers and ultra-high computing power servers have caused a lot of discussion in the mining circle, but today we won't talk about these "old faces". Instead, we will test a multi-coin mining beast with Scrypt algorithm - Volcano D1 16.2G!
When Li Yi received this machine, she was actually a bit excited, after all, the Scrypt algorithm server that focuses on "nine-in-one" is still relatively rare. LTC+DOGE+BEL+LKY+PEP+JKC+CRC+DINGO sounds like a hodgepodge supermarket of coins, and D1 is the "cashier" you pay at, mining is really exciting!
🎁【Unboxing Session】It's not small in size and has a substantial weight!
The first impression of receiving the machine: Really heavy! Really big!
📦 Package dimensions: 475mm × 350mm × 440mm
📦 Net weight/Gross weight: Net weight 20.8kg, Gross weight 23kg
The entire packaging is very solid, with thick foam protection inside the box to avoid damage during transportation.
Upon opening, what comes into view is the black and gray server body, which has a sturdy shape and a style somewhat resembling "industrial black technology." On both sides are thick metal heat dissipation casings, and the front features a dual fan intake structure.
🧱 Server bare metal dimensions: 335mm × 220mm × 325mm
🔌 Interface configuration: Standard RJ45 Ethernet 10/100M, the interface position is designed reasonably, easy to plug and unplug.
⚙️【Specifications Detailed】Parameters are reliable, focusing on "high efficiency + multi-coin mining"
The Volcano D1 focuses on the Scrypt algorithm and supports simultaneous mining of up to 9 types of coins, which is a highly competitive selling point in the current market.
Project parameters
Scrypt algorithm
Supported coins: LTC, DOGE, BEL, LKY, PEP, JKC, CRC, DINGO
Typical hash rate 16.2 GH/s
Power consumption 3778W ±5% (@25°C)
Energy efficiency ratio 229 J/GH
The energy efficiency ratio is considered above average in the Scrypt server field, especially in terms of power consumption control, which is good. It may not achieve absolute energy saving, but it is acceptable within the range of 16.2G.
🔌【Power Supply and Environment】Single-phase power supply is more user-friendly, with a moderate balance of heat dissipation and noise.
The power supply uses a single-phase AC input design, which is very user-friendly for home users and small to medium-sized mining farms, eliminating the need for complicated three-phase electrical modifications.
Parameter Value
Input voltage 200~300V
Current Maximum 20A
Frequency 47~63Hz
The noise test results during operation are approximately 75 decibels. Although it cannot be called "silent," it is considered an average level in the high-power Scrypt mining sector. It is suitable for operation in dedicated server rooms or environments with complete soundproofing equipment.
🌡️【Environmental Adaptability】Can withstand extreme temperatures & high humidity!
According to the official data, this server has a very high tolerance for the environment:
✅ Operating Temperature: -20°C ~ 45°C
✅ Storage temperature: -40°C ~ 70°C
✅ Relative Humidity: 10% ~ 90% (non-condensing)
✅ Maximum altitude: ≤2000m
This means that whether you are in the cold northern regions or the humid southern regions, as long as the power supply keeps up, the environment is not an issue.
⛏️[Mining Test] Fast startup, stable power consumption, strong coin compatibility!
In practical tests, the Volcano D1 startup process is very smooth, entering a stable computing power state in about 3 minutes. The backend management interface is simple and clear, with flexible coin selection that can be dynamically adjusted according to market conditions.
The data after running stably for 8 hours is as follows:
📈 Average Hash Rate: 16.18 GH/s (fluctuating within ±1%)
⚡ Measured power consumption: approximately 3740W
🪙 Multi-coin mining performs well in practice, with stable gains from LTC and DOGE, while BEL and LKY are more volatile but support switching schedules.
🧠[Usage Recommendation]
✅ Suitable crowd:
Beginners who want to get started with Scrypt algorithm mining
Experienced miners with multiple coin types and mining demand
Individuals or medium-sized mining farms looking to layout mainstream coins like LTC and DOGE.
❗ Note:
Pay attention to the voltage range, and be sure to operate between 200~300V.
Ensure that the environment is well-ventilated, and it is recommended to use a power meter or power protection device.
When mining small coins like BEL and LKY, attention should be paid to network stability and pool support.
📌[Summary]
The Volcano D1 16.2G is a high cost-performance Scrypt server with outstanding multi-coin mining capabilities, suitable for miners seeking long-term stable returns. If you want to mine multiple coins with one machine and reduce the payback period, it is a new option worth considering.
👍 Multi-coin support, flexible scheduling
🔋 Power consumption control is average, performance is solid.
📦 The shape is sturdy, and the heat dissipation design is reasonable.
🛠️ Next, editor Li Yi will continue to observe the long-term operational performance of Volcano D1, including pool compatibility, remote management features, and hardware stability. Friends who are interested can like and bookmark this, and we will update the actual measurement yield curve later!
