WD My Cloud can be used to mine BURST (?)
-
Hi all!
Anyone has an idea if this WD My Cloud can be plotted to mine Burst?
I just like to look at it and would love to have it on my desk ONLY if it can be plotted to mine Burst. Please tell me it can. XD
Happy Bursting Everyone!

@jervis Definitely! Not sure how fast it is, but any drive can be used. That is the beauty of Burst, if it spins you can win! If USB 2.0 it will just take slightly longer to read the plot but it is a good place to start, learn and earn.

@CryptoNick I'm just confuse why this specific HDD has a dual core. Does this have an OS or what the heck? I just love to look at it. XD
-
@jervis You have the Dual Drive version? That would mean it is RAID-0 which is still OK but if one of the drives fail you can lose the entire drive and Plot. But it will make you some money in the mean time between failures...
-
@CryptoNick It says it has dual core processors. Well, whatever. As long as it spins, right? Imma get this beauty.
Thanks

@jervis Oh I thought you owned it. I would make sure you get USB3 to speed up Plotting and Mining. I am not sure how fast that is. And a processor doesn't speed up data transfer externally. You can only max out the bandwidth on USB 3 and you don't really use all of it for Mining anyways unless you have multiple drives.

@CryptoNick Oh these may have Ethernet also... Dual Processor could be for that but 1Gbit is the limit... https://www.wdc.com/products/personal-cloud-storage/my-cloud.html

@CryptoNick it says it's USB 3. I have a number of HDDs already mining. But, I just wanted to know if this is a mineable one just because I have a crush on it and wanna get it. No other reason of grandeur. LOL!
