      had a dream last week where i was botting from a 64g flash drive. i woke up and opened my email to see an addy for 64g flash drives for $25. took that as a sign and ordered a couple.

      my goal is to be able to have all the required folders on the flash drive and be able to move from computer to computer and bot.

      what i'd need in the flash drive
      /Arelog
      /honorbuddy folder
      /wow

      with the rumors of wow scanning memory, would there be more risk with all the folders on the same flash drive? [i realize RAM is not equal to a flash drive]

      It wouldn't make a difference at all scan-wise. As if WoW was to scan memory, it wouldn't make a difference where the process originated from, it would only look to see if it was active!

      hmm, seems my 'mobile bot' might be a good idea. i wonder if they will give me any crap for jumping IP's. if they are all in the same city, shouldnt be a problem.

      it would run pretty sloppy off a flash drive, it would have to be usb3 and im guessing you wont always have a usb3 port to stick it in

      well instead of using a drive letter you could use an environment variable.

      won't the read and write speed be extremely slow? I tried botting on a external 1TB harddrive and It was barely playable.

      musta been a shit hdd, most shld be pretty decent, mines usb3 but still pretty fast in a usb2 port. main point was that it'd be a whole lot better than a flash drive.

      If its USB2 atleast, it will be fine.
      If you can copy to it at a good speed like 10-20mb/s it will run fine. I used to do it off a small portable HDD
      If it copies at like 1mb/s you could have issues.

      A USB drive will run the bot more than competently.

      i would recommend like 10-20 16GB SSD's in raid mode. Maybe Blizzard then is flashed by all that flash cells and scans the wrong memory.

      i have a 2tb usb3 hdd but really dont feel like moving it around with me, that thing is pretty big. i have enough parts laying around to build a 2.0 enclosure and fill it with a hdd. ughh 5400rpm spinners are so slow. i guess an ssd would be the next choice but there would still be a bottleneck at the 2.0 usb plug


      the usb2.0 flash drives i purchased are listed at 15MB. ill know more later

      unless you don't have a computer you can consistently use, this is a retarded idea. Theres no point and it doesn't change anything.

      well, it does change the machine id so it doesnt look like i have 3 clients all running on the same machine simultaneously. and i have my box, my wifes comp and a netbook to play with. id rather have all the info portable so i can update from my box and not have any software/keys on other comps.

      It will only change the HWID if you change computers, unfortunately. Your HWID when running WoW from HDD and your HWID when running WoW from USB = same.

      But yes, you will be able to have all the necessary software mobile, if that is your goal, then it makes sense. But it will not provide an extra layer of security.

      Can you link the sale for the flash drives you mentioned? Or is it already over? Thanks.

      Pretty sure a usb isnt going to save you, your still running the program doesnt matter if its located on your local drive or a usb its all the same shit man. PLUS it'll run slow as fuck
