The challenge didn’t ask to disable ipv4 but it was (jokingly) daring people to expose all ports to public to see how long the system would last before being exploited by bots. It wasn’t meant to be taken seriously 😆

the reason OP was thinking of doing this, was saving disk space and avoiding buying another hdd. So if it’s a 1:1 full disk image, then there’s almost no difference with the costs of raid1. Setting exclusions, avoiding certain big files, and so on.
