|
* RAM: 2GB. ECC memory is better. Additionally, it's recommended to use DDR4 memory with

|
|
|
targeted row refresh (TRR) enabled (https://rambleed.com/).

|
|
|
* Disk space: 500 GB (400GB for Bitcoin blockchain + some room) for an unpruned
|
|
|
|
|
instance of Bitcoin Core.
|
|
|
|
|
* This can be significantly lowered by enabling pruning.
|
|
|
|
|
Note: Pruning is not supported by `electrs`.
