The NSA Fast-Tracked Its Gigantic New Data Center and Now It's Melting

You know that massive datacenter the NSA's been building out in Utah?
The one for which superlatives abound? The biggest ever built; the
finest in the government; a billion dollars to construct; potentially
capable of storing a bloody yottabyte of data—enough to house a
hundred years' worth of electronic communications. That one. Well,
it's broken.

The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday that the NSA's new data
center in Bluffdale, Utah, has been experiencing a series of
electrical failures—10 in the last 13 months—that are blowing circuits
and melting the metal machinery.
