System Requirements
The faster the CPU, the more RAM you have
installed, the faster/larger the hard drive, or even an SSD, all this adds
up to much better performance, especially for larger databases. An SSD
(Solid State Drive) really speeds up the program, as there is no mechanical
searching for data. An SSD is similar to a giant memory chip. We
cannot stress enough how much of an impact on performance an SSD will have,
so we highly recommend them.
• Intel or AMD processor less than 5 years old
(newer and faster is better) Larger databases require more CPU. We recommend at least a Core i3 with SSD at
minimum however a Core i5 or better is desired. AMD Ryzen series CPUs
are a good alternative
• At least 8 GB of RAM The more the
better.
• 25GB of available hard-disk space
• 1024X768 or higher screen resolution
|
Size
•
1.15 GB at installation. Database size will vary with number of
records stored.
Networking
•
1 GB/sec or better wired network.
WiFi is not officially supported due to lack of reliability and potential for poor performance.
