Folding@Home ported to ReadyNAS to combat COVID-19?

Hi guys, so obviously with everything going on the sooner we can solve the problem the better.

The folks at Folding@Home are focusing their efforts on COVID-19

Was wondering if anyone can port the .deb app to the ReadyNAS seeing how my system runs 24/7

Would be useful to contribute when it is idle

  • While I have only scanned the site, it appears that they are primarilly using the GPU for computations, and an AMD/AMI or NVIDEA GPU is a prerequisite.  So this is not something a ReadyNAS is equipped for.
