I've hosted 8-16 TB for Storj for the last 2 years and it's a similar deal as Burst. It's definitely greener, uses pretty minimal CPU and is more or less dependent on your up/down speeds and empty drive capacity.

Not a massive return (I've made a bit over 2000 Storj tokens in ~700 days of uptime) but it did jump this week so that's nice. Cost of HDD space vs video cards though I suppose from a hardware return, it's quite good.
