Server Recommendations* |

At least one Pentium-Class or Xeon processor 2.0 GHz or faster) |
System Memory (RAM) |
1 GB (Note: Because database size and number of concurrent users affect system memory, we recommend that you consult with your Sage MIP Authorized Business Partner to determine how much RAM you need.) |
Free Hard Disk Space |
The following formula should be used to determine the minimum "free" disk space on the server: 2GB + (3 * Approximate DB Size) (Note: This will need to increase as your database size increases.) |
RAID Array |
Should be based upon your tolerance for disk failure; however, Microsoft recommends that write-caching capabilities of disk controllers be disabled (unless the manufacturer specifically specifies SQL database compatible.) |
