I wanted something more powerful then raspberry pi or odroid-hc1 so I have built this fanless computer with 1TB SSD for the blockchain. I think it is around 10W power consumption.. but I need new power metter because mine broke.

Parts used:
- Case IN WIN Chopin Silver + power supply inside
- RAM 4GB ADATA DD4 2400
- MB Gigabyte J4005N + 2 core CPU on it
- SSD 960GB SU650 3D NAND
At first I wanted to run the system OS from a USB drive, but 120GB SSD were super cheap so I just added that additional drive for the system.
The most expensive part when you built such node is the SSD drive, so price wise it is very close to rasbery pi + ssd, so if you need reliable, fast enough and ultra quite node, this might be the build for you.
You can change the size of the SSD, but I just figured that going forward blackchains will grow so I didn't want to upgrade later the SSD. I also run other blockchains on it, except bitcoin.
It can't measure to an i5 CPU for example, but it is enough powerful for the actual use it is intended, and no bottlenecks like SATA limitations or USB 2.0 on some of the SoCs.
