You need a 2TB lol
Discussion
Leave me alone to grieve. 😭
nope
You can run a pruned node with less.
A full node is already 1TB with electrum.
A full node with fulcrum needs 2TB going forward.
is fulcrum something CATman is talking about?
Fulcrum is an electrum server that does rapid indexing, which is great for deep wallets.
can't be very rapid if it uses 1400Gb of space
It doesn't. A full node with electrum is currently 1TB. A full node with fulcrum is over 1TB now. So a 2TB SSD is a good idea for long term future use ( epsecially if you want to use a faster lookup like fulcrum ) so you don't have to download a ibd again.
i just use xrdp and directly use the bitcoin core GUI, and the only thing i imagine happening next might be running CLN on it
but the chain does grow like 100mb/day so 10 days = 1 gb and 350 left so 3500 days... ok, hah my node will be good until the hardware fails probably - and yes i have address and tx indexes enabled, uses 680gb
my mini pc was 140 euros and has 8gb memory so it's overkill hardware really, i just envisioned maybe i might run LN and one or two other things on it, i had imageproxy running on it for a while
