Hi there!, Storj community member here.

First:

1- max size per node is 8TB, so if you want to rent out  10TB you have to add 2x nodes.
2- You need at least 1-2GB RAM per node.
3- You have to have a "decent" internet connection : Above 1/1Mb symmetrical.

It is vital to properly configure your node so these are the basic instructions we provide to new users:

- Step 1: Synchronize your clock

   see https://docs.storj.io/v1.1/docs/storj-share-gui#section-311-ntp-synchronization-for-windows

- Step 2: configure port forwarding

   see https://docs.storj.io/v1.1/docs/storj-share-gui#section-332-advanced-configuration

- Step 3: Stop Storj Share, delete the log, start storjshare and upload the new log to #storjshare on rocketchat and to this automatic log checker: ssdynamite.com


To monitor the nodes: https://docs.storj.io/v1.1/docs/nodes-monitoring
To check the logs: https://docs.storj.io/v1.1/docs/log-checking-tools


You payout depends on how well your node is configured and how much data you upload/download, which is of course directly related with how much renters are uploading, some days may be busy, and some not so much, it varies.

Here is the payout formula section: https://docs.storj.io/v1.1/docs/storj-share-gui#section-8-payments
