These are EthStaker’s rotating recommendations for validator hardware but these are not your only options! Availability varies depending on your region. Not all SSDs will work for a validator - if you’re thinking of purchasing a different SSD, look for it on this gist of known compatibilities maintained by EthStaker’s Yorickdowne.
Purchase plug-and-play staking hardware!
