What is the storage requirement for OS to run hashcat?
#1
I'm looking to test a rig with 4-6 GPUs and i'm wondering if i can use USB persistent Linux build as OS.

Does Hashcat use alot of IOs from the local OS?

Can i offset the storage data such as dictionary lists to an iSCSI/AoE server? Would that be a bottle neck due to the slower speed than a local SSD?

I'm also reading through a distributed setup called Hashtopus, i'm not clear about the storage for an agent also. Dont they get to share the same data from a SAN? or they each have a copy of the data to work on?

I'm sorry if these questions have been answered. I tried to use the search function on the forum with no success.

Best regards,
