Externally connected SSDs
Feature details
Right now NiceNode allows a user to run a node and select an externally connected device for the node's storage. However, there are a few changes needed.
- NN should scan for externally connected SSDs before showing storage warnings. Right now it just looks at storage which the OS is installed on.
- When a user is adding a node and the Operating System storage does not have enough storage, NN should prompt a user to use an external SSD, if an external SSD is connected.
- NN should also suggest external SSDs as an option in Hardware Requirements in the app and on the docs website. This is going to be a very appealing option for our targeted users (those who don't want to open their computer to add storage). Also external SSDs are a great option for those who might move their node between computers.
