It's possible that's the issue, but I don't think so.  We've yet to hear
anyone say that 500 GB is more than they can do, and there have only been a
couple of people who've posted here who haven't set up a node.

I think we just need to figure out how/where to advertise some more.  I'll
see what I can do.
