Do you find the storage requirements for running a node with the whole blockchain to be bothersome?

I used to run Core on my old laptop. Since I had old hard drives I needed to prune

I, too, run it on a laptop. But I have a 1 TB drive, so I'm still doing okay. Gonna have to prune or get a 2TB drive soon.

If you want a lasting at-home setup, I have one of them Odroid M2s (tho I got mine a lot cheaper - due to RAM prices prolly) with one of them Samsung 9900 Pro NVMe thingies (tho I got mine a lot cheaper - due to no tariffs prolly)

And these work perfect for me. IBD was reasonably fast too.

The big difference is that I paid approx $300 for the entire setup... versus this saying it'll be way over $1k. So I'm not sure if it's worth it over a disk migration.
