Critical as in the SSD?

SSD is fine, but leveldb loves to randomly corrupt. This time I couldnโ€™t even reindex, have to redownload the whole chain. Thats the critical part

Poor number five.

Does it run on proper hardware (x86, not a Pi) and is the SSD connected via PCIe or SATA? If itโ€™s connected via USB, Iโ€™d change that as soon as possible, as this could cause issues.

bro

A minimum of 2 SSDs in RAID 1. SSDs great for speed but not as reliable as HDDs.

Apparently it gets corrupted even in raid setups according to people iโ€™ve talked to hereโ€ฆ i suspect there is a bug but core devs donโ€™t think so

mine is a runs forever on a old laptop without me doing anything
