And the winner of https://inleo.io/@forkyishere/benchmarking-my-new-hive-node my last #giveaway, was @rishi556 with an answer of 18.8 hours. (enjoy the 2023 HP delegation mate).
The total run was 19h18m 😱 - 81313230 blocks
Note: I had to repeat the benchmark due to a missapp/accident I had with the power plug, but I have accounted everyone timings respectively. Pictures bellow.

Finish (entering live mode)
The Highest guess was 40h57m by @lipe100dedos, and the Lowest guess was 11h00m by @evih.
I didn't say, but this ran on 22.04 LTS, which is a very important detail. I am preparing the next one now!
Thanks, feel like I cheated a bit with my own sync happening just shortly before that :P
I'll put this to some good use!
Fun fact, someone flipped a switch and killed my node too and I've got to do another sync as well haha!
The local sync is going to be harder... 😁
And I am also doing tests on Ubuntu 23.10...
Also after I had already the results, the 990 PRO started some performance problems (simply would "turn off" out of nothing) that might change results with this new firmware.
Samsungs been having some fun with their recent drives(980 PROs had the issue where they killed themselves), but I still use them very heavily(just bought like 10TB worth of 980 pros this month lol).
I was running in a Sabrent rocket. Definitely one of the more pretty drives I’ve seen.
Yeah, but they sort out them with new firmwares. Eventually... its the only way to flood the market and get market share. Good for us, because they get cheaper with people complaining. 😜
I am looking at the market players a lot lately, and feeling very tempted to try these 7 series memblaze crazzyness almost 3 million IOPs and all the enterprise style features. Expensive but still very attractive against others, especially for one of the lowest latencies when comparing with others.
7 series memblaze? Wtf even is that lol. I’m just excited for more gen 5 drives.

Ohhh nice, they support U.2, though I don't own anything that can do PCIE5 U.2, probably can use an adapter on a PCIE slot. I can't find it for sale anywhere though, got a link by chance, wanna see pricing?
