The only thing i can think about mining with your HDD is that it would be very unhealthy for the drive, then people are going to say their hard drive failed.
Actually, it is EXTREMELY easy on your drives, not a single person in the over a year BURST has been around has mentioned anything near BURST being bad for their drives, and myself personally, every single one of the drives I mine with still works as if it were brand new.
If you think about it, you're only using the drive for a few seconds every 4 minutes or so, it's hardly as bad as actually using them for data, and it doesn't use them near to their potential or stress them out in the slightest.
If you do some mining for yourself, maybe you'll see what I mean
