Well done for making Hive API nodes so cheap to run!

This is fantastic for decentralisation.

The 2 x 1Tb super fast NVMe drives cost me $105 each (in Israel).

RAIDed they deliver amazing performance.

So for a couple of hundred bucks I've upgraded a 4 year old machine to be able to run ALL of Hive's traffic (if necessary).
Anyone with a bit of tech background can do this.

This means any one of the current 19 API nodes (with many more to come) could run all HIVE traffic in an emergency.
