    From your post history, it looks like you're using RPis, in which case the intrinsic latency of the USB controller is starting you off on the wrong foot. etcd doesn't like latency > 10ms. Have you tested your setup with kbench or something similar?

    I've bene following their issues about HDD and they say HDD is not recommended but is not a no-go. They state that HDD works up to a certain load, and they are looking to improve it. I believe this benchmark tool by Longhorn does 4K random writes... https://github.com/yasker/kbench

    Tbf that isn't distributed storage. You could use DBRD with ZFS over it though, to accomplish this. I plan to try it at some point - I love ZFS, and for my NAS and backup target it's terrific, but I want something that can distribute across my three compute nodes.
