Going to try one last time - are there benefits /drawbacks to running more than one bitcoin node?

I am already running one, but was wondering whether I should run another?

Idk seems redundant. I just run a start9

Thank you!

I got 2 running, don’t have the heart to unplug the one I built. We’ve been through a lot, she’s kind of like family.

Thank you!

Redundancy. If one goes down or suffers a hardware failure you can easily copy the blocks from the second node and get back online quickly.
