Storj docs say somewhere that 8 TB is the recommended size for a node. The bandwidth required to run a full 40 TB node would be immense. Once you reach 8 TB you can keep going or start a second node like storj recommends. Its my opinion you will run out of bandwidth first

Not sure where you get this 1-3 months crap. My nodes receive data instantly

Once a month or so yes. Then I restart it and it will update and die again right away then be fine after a second restart.

Definitely doesn’t take 1-2 years to fill a node but I agree it’s not worth it.
