Is there anyway that we can rent out our Harddrive space while mining?

OK guys I know that a plot file fill up space. So how about the plot file reserve only 10% of your capacity to only calculate nounces, and adjust the block reward to make it 10x higher ( to make the amount of rewards equivalent to what we mine now). The rest of space is rented out.
Example...
-
Make a plot file size of 10TB.
-
1TB is reserve (in Plotfile) for calculating nounces and make it equivalent to mining 10TB by adjusting the Block reward 10x higher.
-
The rest of your capacity (also in the Plot file which would be 9TB left) is rented out on the platform as cloud storage for users/businesses.
Do anyone see any issues with this? Although it maybe needed to make Fork of Burstcoin for a project like that or somehow implemented in the code.

@Wolf i think you have the answer already .. if you plot less you will leave some capacity to be "rented" .. which is why i think this was never implemented.. it also helps hedge your portfolio.. if this one new fork of a coin goes down you lose but if you are still gaining other coins elsewhere that arent directly tied you can lessen the blow for example .. i think .. im no programmer but i do not see the need for a better mouse trap

i do like that you are thinking about it though.. i am not telling you , you are wrong or right.. but i am offering an uneducated opionion
