Ant S21 XP Hyd: The powerful mining capability behind the 5676W power consumption
#btc##Ant S21XP Hyd Unboxing Review
1. First Impressions
Good evening, family. The Antminer S21XP Hyd is the latest water-cooled Bitcoin server launched by Bitmain, released in 2025. As a leader in the server industry, Bitmain has always been known for its high performance and innovative technology, and this newly launched water-cooled server is no exception. From the packaging to the device itself, the S21 XP Hyd gives a sense of precision and power.
2. Packaging and Appearance
Editor Li Yi first noticed the sturdy foam protective layer after opening the package, ensuring that the server would not be damaged during transport. The server itself is securely fixed in the foam, making it appear very safe. The external dimensions of the server are 339*173*207mm, with a weight of 13.8KG, and compared to traditional air-cooled servers, the water-cooled design makes it more compact and modern.
**The shell of the server is made of high-strength aluminum alloy material, which has been precision machined and feels very solid. The overall design is very industrial and technological. The front and back of the server have obvious water-cooled duct connections, which makes it easy for users to install water-cooled systems. **
3. Performance Parameters
Antminer S21XP Hyd supports the SHA-256 algorithm, with a computing power of an astonishing 473 TH/s and a power consumption of 5676 W. This server not only has a significant increase in computing power, but also the combination of the water cooling system with the radiator has significantly improved heat dissipation efficiency, ensuring the stability and durability of the equipment under high-intensity computation.
4. Installation and Configuration
Due to the use of a water cooling system, the installation of the Antminer S21XP Hyd is somewhat complicated, but still within an acceptable range. First, choose a suitable location, ensuring that there is enough space and ventilation in the surrounding environment. Then, connect the power cable and network cable, and proceed to install the water cooling system, which can be connected to an external cabinet or an external water outlet. The water cooling system needs to be configured with inlet and outlet pipelines to ensure smooth water flow. Finally, configure the machine's backend according to the manual, and use the official website for remote management, allowing users to monitor and adjust in real-time.
5. Practical Test
In practical operation, the Ant S21XP Hyd performs exceptionally well. After starting up, the server quickly enters working status, with computing power stabilizing around 473 TH/s. The advantage of the water cooling system lies in its efficient heat dissipation capability; even under full load, the device temperature remains at a relatively low level, ensuring long-term stable operation of the equipment.
Through group control, the real-time status of the server can be clearly observed, including parameters such as computing power, temperature, and water cooling system status. Users can make adjustments as needed to ensure the device operates at optimal conditions.
6. Noise and Energy Consumption
Compared to traditional air-cooled servers, water-cooled servers have significant advantages in noise control. The Ant S21XP Hyd operates at a very low noise level of only 55 decibels, making it suitable for use in various environments. Additionally, although the power consumption is 5676 W, its efficient computing power and water cooling system effectively control energy consumption, resulting in relatively low operational costs.
7. Summary
Overall, the Antminer S21XP Hyd has reached industry-leading levels in terms of appearance design, performance parameters, and actual performance. Its high computing power, low noise, and efficient heat dissipation features make it very attractive in the market. For users who require high-performance servers, the Antminer S21XP Hyd is undoubtedly a very worthwhile choice to consider.
As the latest flagship product of Bit's mainland, the S21 XP Hyd showcases its innovations and breakthroughs in server technology. In the future, we look forward to this server bringing more surprises and value in practical applications.
