Specifically crafted for a Monero node. Disk will be expanded as the blockchain grows, for no extra charge.

should fully sync the entire blockchain, unpruned, in about 24-48 hours. started mine 20 hours ago:

Synced 2336540/2958303 (78%, 621763 left, 45% of total synced, estimated 17.8 hours left)

Sounds like alot of maybes. I don't understand why you need to pay someone to run a node but ig it's your money. You can also run a pruned node it uses ~70% less storage. I'm running mine on hdd. Just sync on SSD and copy over to hdd. You can prolly get a le potato for 35$ a cheap hdd for 20$ and run it at home. Or just get a cheap computer from Facebook marketplace or something. This way you own the hardware for a lifetime while actually contributing to decentralization.

right, you could do that, or you could host it on a vps, the choice is yours. no one's forcing you to do anything, or even implying that you should do one over the other
