Hello.
What are the profits for hdd mining, is there any profit calculator?
Thanks.
Profits are extremely low at the moment. Unless you have access to cheap hard drives or you already have them, HDD mining isn't profitable much. You can calculate here:
https://explore.burst.cryptoguru.org/tool/calculateA 8tb HDD makes $4.5 in a month, a 8tb seagate ($150) ROI's itself in 30 months. ROI is way worse than GPU's. But there are some good news too; HDD's are futureproof. HDD development is much slower than GPU development and you don't have to worry about their power consumption. As long as you get them cheap, you can fill your room with them. GPU's have more coins to mine though. That's a weakness for BURST.
If you believe in the project there isn't any reason to get in now.
A good question would be to know if is possible to dual mining gpu + hdd mining, in this case I would find it interesting as I can access some cheap or even free hdd's and it would be an extra profit to add to the gpu mining, if not, for me, does not worth it.
