Okay Kubernetes people. I am about to build my first cluster with 4 Raspberry Pi 4B 4gb models powered over POE.

I was going to host just some basic stuff on it (forgejo, a couple Ghost Blogs) and try hosting a Mastodon instance.

The documentation mentioned that I should not use the SD cards for database stuff. So I was going to get some super short thumb drives.

What is everyone else's set up look like with raspberry pis? And how important is matching hardware?

I'm sure I'll learn more from reading the documents but this is my concern right now.

(I was also required to upload a photo so have my Latitude D630)

I initially generated the talos config with the template script, but using talhelper directly offers a bit more flexibility. The first four nodes in this list are the cm4's

I also wrote down my setup steps, check here:
