Recommended hardware

The software has been tested on multiple configurations and works well even on older laptops, but the best affordable configuration is as follows:

Windows 7 or Windows 10
4-core i7 processor with hyperthreading
16 Gb of RAM (per each instance of the product)
SSD drive as a system disk and big magnetic drive for case data (1Tb or larger)

The more processors/cores/RAM/disk storage, naturally the better. Note, that for high-end stations it is recommended to have at least 2Gb of RAM per each core to be used by Belkasoft. For example, if you have 48 processors with hyperthreading and decide to allow 40 of them to use by the product, you should have at least 80Gb of RAM.

Note, that you can restrict the usage of resources by the product with CPU and memory settings.
