Hey guys - hope all is good.
I have filled up my 1TB drive now in my windows server. I want to increase my server with another node. How do i go about doing that? I dont use docker - i have used the windows GUI.

I am not gonna switch to linux for other reasons.
I am not gonna do Raid.
I might install docker if needed - but i whould then need to “move” my node?
I whould prefer not using docker.

Thanks alot! :smiley:

You can use my made toolbox Win GUI Storj Node Toolbox
It is not officially supported, but it working for lot of windows users.
for each node you need new identitie, in separete folder(not override first node or you kill it)
and separate port. I am running 60 windows nodes like that

No, you can continue to run your first node. Docker just allows you to run the second and following nodes.
