Starting with Sia hosting, looking for advice



  • I'm looking into Sia hosting as I think it has potential, I'll be supplying over 20tb over time however I don't really understand the Sia UI, as it doesn't have all the parameters I see being talked about it only has Max Duration, Collateral per TB per Month, Price per TB per Month, Bandwidth price and accepting contracts. Is there any way to see what settings would be best for this, I don't want to charge high bandwidth because my bandwidth is unlimited (so ill set that to 1) however I'm not too sure about the other settings.

    Also, can you add more drives over time to the host if you have already started hosting and is there a limit on the amount of drives you can have as I will have about 20 separate usb drives running. I'll be using 2000 Sia as collateral for about 10tb to start with, would this be okay? I hopefully should have close to 100% uptime.

    @Doubie I'd start out very small scale so that you don't lose your coins by accident.
