On April 17, 2020, MicroBT released the Whatsminer M30S series of mining machines for the third Bitcoin halving, adding two new members, Whatsminer M30S+ and Whatsminer M30S+ +. Today we will take a look at these two miners.

Design of Whatsminer M30S+

In terms of appearance, Whatsminer M30S+ adopts the classic extremely simple barrel design in the industry. The difference between Whatsminer M30S+ + and Whatsminer M20S is that the power supply is replaced with a flat style, and a model P21-GB-12-3300 power supply is standard.

The improved power supply reduces the size and weight, which reduces the height of the whole machine by 15mm, and the weight of the whole machine is 0.9kg lighter than that of the M20S. On the basis of ensuring stable placement, the rectangular fuselage minimizes the space occupation on the left and right sides, which is convenient for large-scale encryption mining companies to mine on a large scale.Whatsminer M30S++ uses two 14038 12V 7.2A fans for heat dissipation. The fan power (7.2A) is lower than that of the M20 series (9A). The front fan uses a 6-pin flat interface, and the rear fan uses a 4-pin 4P interface. The front and rear fans of the miner are not compatible with each other.

Whatsminer M30S+ + uses the H3 control board, and the control board shell is also marked with information such as model, computing power, SN code and network card MAC address. The computing power board is inserted and fixed through the groove, and the arrangement is tight. There are 3 built-in computing power boards, and each computing power board has 148 Samsung 8nm ASIC chips, a total of 444 chips.

Specifications of Whatsminer M30S+

The Whatsminer M30S+ measures 390x150x225mm and weighs 10.5kg. The noise level of the whole machine during normal operation is 85.7 decibels.

According to the manufacturer's data, Whatsminer M30S++ standard hash rate is 112TH/s, power consumption ratio is 31J/T, Whatsminer M30S+ standard hash rate is 110T, power consumption ratio is 34J/T. This mining machine is the fiercest competitor of the Bitmain Antminer S19 series.

Whatsminer M30S++ price

In terms of price, the Whatsminer M30S+ was priced at $2740 when it was first released; the Whatsminer M30S++ was priced at $3899.84. However, the price of miners has always been at a premium, and the price of Whatsminer M30S++ once reached as high as $8000. Currently, Whatsminer M30S-88T is available on mining platform LLGO for $1710. 

If you want to buy Whatsminer M30S-88T at a lower price, you can choose to buy Whatsminer M30S-88T on LLGO. Moreover, buying Whatsminer M30S-88T on LLGO is guaranteed, and buying Whatsminer M30S-88T on other platforms may buy a low-quality mining machine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1:How much does Whatsminer M30S++ make?

A1:Due to the current low bitcoin price and the increasing difficulty of bitcoin mining, whatsminer M30S++ is no longer profitable considering the power consumption of the miner.

Q2:What is Whatsminer M30S?

A2:Whatsminer M30S is a high-efficiency Bitcoin mining machine series launched by the mining machine manufacturer Bitcoin. It has multiple models and is widely praised by mining investment groups.

Q3:How to set up Whatsminer?

Connect the power of the miner to the power strip, and the miner starts to run. Finally, connect the network cable and connect the PC that manages the miner to the same network where the miner is running. Use the automatic detection IP function, open the detection IP interface, and click Start. At this time, the client will automatically detect the IP address reported by the miner. Finally, set the relevant parameters according to your own needs, and you can start mining.

Q4:Which is better, Whatsminer or Antminer?

A4:At present, Antminer's mining machines are often the representative of high computing power and are at the forefront of the entire industry, but relatively speaking, Whatsminer also has high stability and cost performance. For miners, under the same computing power, there is not much difference between the two.
