With a Raspberry Pi, 1-2TB SSD drive, case and all the parts it could cost $400-$600 I chose to use Umbrel for my OS and built mine using this tutorial…
Took me less than an hour to set up and gave me a great feeling when it was all done and working. Highly recommend everyone try it...
PARTS LIST:
Umbrel Software: https://umbrel.com/
Raspberry Pi 4 with 8GB RAM, heat sinks and power supply: https://a.co/d/aRUdGky
I used an Aluminum Cooling Case for the Raspberry Pi 4 but this is optional: https://a.co/d/e3SPzeN
1TB SSD Hard Drive: https://a.co/d/acFqD0T
Hard drive case: https://a.co/d/1au420y
Ethernet cable: https://a.co/d/03Dk7AF
Custom Node Shell by CryptoCloaks (use code “btcsessions” for 5% off!) • They have several different options. I used the All Metal Triton: https://www.cryptocloaks.com/product/tritonmetal/ • The Lightning Shell is cheaper: https://www.cryptocloaks.com/product/lightningshell/
