The recent Storj node addition to my blinged out webserver has made certain hardware limitations come to light. Specifically, the lack of native M.2 slots for NVMe storage expansion. After a brief flirtation with a 10TB SATA HDD, it's become clear Storj needs SSD speeds to work effectively. Rather than do the smart thing and end my Storj node, I've gone all in with a new motherboard using my displaced Ryzen 7700 CPU, which supports PCIe bifurcation of the x4x4x4x4 variety. Thus my 6 NVMe drive wall mounted web server (and Storj node) machine is born.
