The op was speaking of RAM in this case, not storage.

You can run HamVoIP on an 8GB card just fine. It will only use 4GB of that space no matter how large the card is, unless you manually expand the file system.

Even though HamVoip says it needs 4GB, a 4GB card only has
about 3.7GB, so you need to use an 8GB minimum.

Honestly, don¡¯t worry about memory unless you are running ASL3 and a bunch of other stuff on the same rPi along with your node. Even a 512MB rPi 3 model A Plus running HamVoIP has plenty of memory free if you are just using it as a single user radio node, and not doing anything extravagant.
8GB is definitely a waste in that context. If you use HamVoIP, that distribution is 32 bit, so half of that memory can¡¯t even be addressed.

That¡¯s great news! I¡¯m starting to understand this more.

Do you have a recommended/preferred amount of memory (2gb,4gb or 8gb) my raspberry Pi should have for this to work correctly?
