Does the arbiter node have to be high spec? ie I have a raspberrypi as my bastion host / system controller, if its a simple "write to node 2 as 1 is off" sort of thing the Pi might cope. If its like that at all of course, the Pi cant do any bandwidth and i/o to speak of even with an added sata port.
I believe low spec is ok for a arbiter node, but preferably someone with actual experience could speak to that :) I suspect a raspberry pi would be pushing the limits.
I used a intel celerelon nuc as a 3rd node for a long while in a ceph cluster, that worked well.
Alternatively you could use a VM on one of your nodes as a 3rd node, for testing purposes.
