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.
