My bitcoin node has had yet another critical failure for the 10th time , rebuilding it.
Critical as in the SSD?
SSD is fine, but leveldb loves to randomly corrupt. This time I couldn’t even reindex, have to redownload the whole chain. Thats the critical part
Poor number five. https://media.tenor.com/z3NI9n7V4VwAAAAC/no-mad.gif
Does it run on proper hardware (x86, not a Pi) and is the SSD connected via PCIe or SATA? If it’s connected via USB, I’d change that as soon as possible, as this could cause issues.
A minimum of 2 SSDs in RAID 1. SSDs great for speed but not as reliable as HDDs.
Apparently it gets corrupted even in raid setups according to people i’ve talked to here… i suspect there is a bug but core devs don’t think so
