I've got an old ass i5 2500k (3.30ghz) with 8gb DDR3 running win7pro sp1. I'm sure I can scrounge up a spare 1TB ssd.
Is this sufficient to run both a Bitcoin and LN node on the same machine? Do I need to separate the LN node in any way? (ie seperate partition or VM)
Also... any way to leverage a NAS that's currently in-use as active backup? Would I be potentially putting personal data saved in the NAS at risk? What if I added a VM to the NAS?
Lots of questions... pls halp!
