In light of the only true Bitcoin's (BitcoinSV) recent achievement of surpassing a Blockchain size of 5,000 Gb, I thought I would help you guys get started on running a full node! (Satire, not factually correct)

First, obviously, we are going to need at least 6TB of disk space, I find the external hard drives to be the best/cheapest from Seagate. The 1TB ones are more reliable than the larger hard disks in my opinion.

6 of the following: Seagate Amazon

Only $300 to store the entire blockchain?! That's a deal!

Next, we need to purchase a new computer (What? You thought you could run a full node on your shitty home computer?). We will be processing up to 4GB of transactions every 10 minutes! I suggest this Beelink Mini PC with up to 4.0GHZ and 16 Gb of RAM for only $500! Beelink Amazon

Finally, let's get that home network improved so we can handle all the traffic at peak hours. This NetGear Modem Router Combo will be able to handle all the traffic we need it to for only $200! NetGear Amazon

Lastly, because we want to be prepared for anything possible, let's go ahead and order a month's worth of more hard disks to store the entire blockchain if in case maximum throughput is used. Let's order 18 more of those Seagate 1TB disks on amazon, to cover the possible 17,280 Gb of new transactions in a month-long period, only $900 more dollars!

Now you'll need some wiring and harnesses to daisy chain all these hard disks, but I am sure you can figure that out. This tutorial taught you how to successfully run a full BitcoinSV Node for only $1,900! And it will only cost an additional $900 per month at max to run! Happy mining! Like, Comment Subscribe!
