- ketralnis 9y ago> you need to have all the sstable files from all nodes in a rack on disk If you're not using vnodes, then you need all of the sstables from the previous $RF nodes in the ring. So with RF==3, it will briefly have about treble the amount that it will finally carry. It's a lot of temporarily wasted disk space for sure, but now you're in full control of how you get the data there
