Overview

Syncing an Ethereum node is largely reliant on IOPS, I/O Per Second. Budget SSDs will struggle to an extent, and some won't be able to sync at all.

This document aims to snapshot some known good and known bad models.

For size, 2TB come recommended as of mid-2022. 1TB can work for now but is getting tight.

High-level, QLC and DRAMless are far slower than "mainstream" SSDs.

Sending Ether Cheat Sheet

TLDR

🥇 Instead of sending Ether, use the withdrawal pattern

🥈 If you really need to send Ether, use a safe wrapper like OpenZeppelin's Address.sendValue(addr, amount)

🥉 If you really need to send Ether without dependencies, use (bool success, ) = addr.call{value: amount}("")
