Not comparable. You can delete the game when you’re done with it. And in the end, nobody will need 20TB of games. If we make blocks much larger, full nodes will need 20TB of undeletable data

I know more people in real life that have many multi tb ssd full of video games in their rigs then I know people running nodes that have this issue.

20 tb to much run a pruned node

A 36 TB NAS costs $1200 so you’ll need about 10 of those a year to do what you’re proposing here 🤣

You found a single refurbished hard drive, and that’s not including the NAS hardware needed to properly store this much data at the bandwidth needed here.

That was just one click on a simple google search.

It’s not that hard or expensive was my point.

Those 10tb hdd new are 250 a pop and you need 36 of those a year to store 1 year of data. And that’s assuming you have no back ups
