I don't understand what u mean here won't the memory stick always be the same size and shouldn't change?

does anyone have bitcoind running on an ARM processor?
People have got it running on raspberry pis. The amount of memory (RAM) you require is the main problem.
Yeah, storing the data is no prob. You can't use it without a lot of RAM though.

…is pretty small. It fits on the tip of a finger with enough space (46 GB free, 18 GB used) to grow for another 1-3 years.
This got me thinking: does anyone have bitcoind running on an ARM processor? It seems it should be possible to create a "bitcoin node" based on an ARM processor, a microSD card, and a simple ethernet interface IC. The entire node would be only slightly larger than the RJ-45 connector on the mating ethernet cable.
(Yes, I know about raspberry-pis, but this would be vastly smaller, cheaper.)
