Start9 over umbrel, pricing/performance, documentation, support are all better.

I wouldn’t host a lightning node without ecc/raid features, but that’s just my personal experience in IT talking, it’s not a hard requirement. 

I also sell nodes that come with my time & I pitch #proxmox as the go to tool for self-hosting infrastructure, including non-bitcoin software. Nodes in bio. 

 I want a Start9 node too, but they are all sold out now, right?

I don’t see an inventory count but both seem to let me add to cart & continue to checkout, so I assume it’s in stock. 

 Ahh I had no idea. I couldn't get to this from the website. There is a Start9 Pure, which is the one that is sold out. 

 Oh sorry, I just checked the site now, both are no longer sold out... Thanks for taking the time to respond.
