# Chapter 8. System Requirements

The following sections detail the hardware and software requirements for running PostNuke. More information about configuring the software packages can be found in the Appendix.

# Hardware Requirements

The hardware requirements for PostNuke are essentially driven by the software that you wish to run on the computer. If your computer is capable of running PHP, MySQL, and the webserver (Apache / IIS / etc.), then it can certainly run PostNuke. More generous hardware configurations, additional memory, and increased storage space will improve the performance and capabilities of the system.

* Internet connection: An internet connection is very highly recommended, but it is not required -- PostNuke will run quite happily on a standalone computer.

* Storage: The absolute minimum storage space for an installation of PostNuke is approximately 8 megabytes. However, this amount of storage leaves almost no room for expansion. It is therefore recommended that PostNuke is allocated at LEAST 25 megabytes of storage space.
