this is false. you do not need terabytes of storage on a pruned node. you need the same amount of network *bandwidth*, sure, but pruned nodes prune as they are downloading. They only keep as much as they need to rollback incase of a reorg.

@jb55 is correct. Pruned nodes can work with all kinds of sub-1TB disk sizes. We even sell refurbished pruned nodes that have only a 256 GB SSD that work quite well. image
