Core Information: Current block = 579869 Last Block = Sat June 8th 16:50:17 2019

Looks good.

Armory still stuck at 28%, 169113................

I'll let it play out for awhile

Okay following up on this.
I'm pretty sure Armory isn't looking in the correct location for the Bitcoin blockchain that Core has downloaded.
Sorry, I should've realised when I saw "Node Status" but I haven't done a fresh sync for quite some time. To my knowlege, Node Status displays the progress Core has made towards downloading the blockchain. Going by the block count you gave, your core installation is fully synced so this would make very little sense.

Unless you've configured Armory to tell Bitcoin Core otherwise, Bitcoin Core will download to %appdata%\Bitcoin by default. I expect there will be some blockchain files there now, using up space on your SSD.

What you want to do is open Armory and go to File > Settings.
Is there a value in the "Bitcoin Home Dir" box and is it the same folder that you have Bitcoin Core set up to use on your hard drive?
If no to either, change it to the correct directory and close Armory. Make sure ArmoryDB.exe has closed too before restarting Armory.

Let me know if it was/wasn't correct and see if that helps or changes the situation.
Unless it all magically works perfectly, please answer these questions from my previous post too

how have you got Armory & Bitcoin Core set up to work together? Are you starting Bitcoin Core, leaving it open and then starting Armory? Or have you been closing Bitcoin Core?
In Armory under File > Settings is "Let Armory run Bitcoin Core/bitcoind in the background" checked or unchecked?
