The QORTector is intended to be an open source hardware solution that can be a cheaper alternative to those looking for a dedicated Qortal node. Qortal nodes need to be running 24/7 in order to stay synchronized to the chain. If a node does not stay running 24/7, it will need to synchronize each time prior to making use of Qortal. | The QORTector is intended to be an open source hardware solution that can be a cheaper alternative to those looking for a dedicated Qortal node.

+ | The QORTector Gen 2 device features a 500GB SSD storage, quad-core 64-bit processor, 8GB RAM, wireless networking, dual-display output, and 4K video playback (utilizing the latest Brooklyn kernel version)! The Gen 2 is a special purpose image for the Raspberry Pi 4 Rev 1.1 and above that utilizes advanced crypto and server grade functions to facilitate minting and full featured accelerated desktop. Gen 2 has proven itself as a full replacement of standard x86 daily driver desktops at the expense of a fraction of power and resource utilization. All variants above Rev 1.1 for Pi4 up to 8GB RAM are supported out of the box. | ||
