The Pi’s are so over priced right now. Go on eBay and buy a old office desktop like a SFF HP. There are tons of them well under $80. Pair that with a SSD and now you have a cheap home server that can handle a node plus a lot more

How much ram do you like on those HPs?

As much as possible but the two I’ve got now are only running 8

I put 16GB in mine but I don’t use over 6GB. Save your money and get a bigger SSD. A 1 TB minimum or if you are planning on using it for more than just a node go for 2 TB

Nice, I’ll grab one with 8gb in that case and then buy a 2tb ssd.

Thinking of running mynode or start9 on it, do you have any preferences?

I’ve never tried mynode. Start9 and Umbriel are good. Or just go Ubuntu Server.
