Diraq has installed an operational eight-qubit silicon spin quantum computer inside an Equinix commercial data center in Sydney, Australia. The system uses electron-spin-in-silicon processors fabricated with standard silicon-metal-oxide-semiconductor (Si-MOS) lithography and draws less than 20 kW while occupying 172 sq ft of floor space. By integrating the cryostat and control electronics into shared colocation infrastructure, the deployment tests whether quantum hardware can run reliably amid electromagnetic interference, cooling-water flow fluctuations, and floor vibrations typical of active enterprise facilities. Over the next twelve months Diraq plans to upgrade to a 256-qubit processor within the same refrigeration unit, aiming to assess modular scaling without expanding the facility footprint. The milestone coincides with Diraq’s selection for Stage C of DARPA’s Quantum Benchmarking Initiative and a $38 million non-binding memorandum under the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act. 1
