When creating a new identity, I got the following output:
Found a key with difficulty 36!
Unsigned identity is located in "C:\\Users\\twl\\AppData\\Roaming\\Storj\\Identity\\storagenode"
Please *move* CA key to secure storage - it is only needed for identity management and isn't needed to run a storage node!
I’d like to finally know which exact files I can move out of the identity folder
Each node should have 6 files - back them all up.
Then you should move the ca.key to secure storage since it is not needed to run the node but is the key to keeping your node’s identity secure.
The docs also offer a recommendation to have your node’s identity folder and contents on the same drive where the node stores files. I have all of them on my OS drive, since that should never change.
