I once tried Bitcoin Core on a Raspberry 3. The initial blockchain download took four weeks. I then switched to an Intel NUC. Very happy now. It has an i7 and 2 TB SSD. I use Proxmox as virtualization layer and operate several VM, one of them with Umbrel. It runs for months without issues, less than 10 W power consumption.
