    I currently have a two nodes SQL Server cluster. Both nodes have identical hardware (dell R900 servers). I want to add a third node on the existing cluster, is that possible? another concerned is; the server for the third node is not identical to the initial two existing nodes. Will this work or will it face issues?

    Thank you in advance.

    What edition of SQL server are you using, if it's standard then you can't install to a third node the limit is 2.

    It's not ideal to have different spec nodes but can be done, this usually happens when you cluster a physical node with a virtual node.
