I keep hoping they release a new umbrel-home with a 4TB plus drive. I was late to see the upgrade to the new os and when I did last weekend I was too lazy to do any work…perhaps now I’ll have to!

Same. I went with a 20TB HDD external storage it’s been painfully slow at syncing the bitcoin blockchain. It’s been 7 days and it’s only 30% synced.

I have the Pi 4 with 4GB of RAM. I knew that swapping out my 1TB SSD for the HDD was going to be slow, but my goodness this hasn’t been fun 😅🫡

Hahaha. Yeah….and the pi has some extra security risks. But it’s all trade offs.

that's gonna take over a month to sync... it syncs slower the fuller the blocks are... and the blocks are most empty at the beginning

I know…I don’t know if I should return the HDD I bought and restart with a larger SSD set up. Thoughts? nostr:npub1aghreq2dpz3h3799hrawev5gf5zc2kt4ch9ykhp9utt0jd3gdu2qtlmhct
