System requirements Server Windows

Last update:

4/5/2024

If the server is only used for data storage, a relatively simple system is sufficient. As soon as the server is used for project sharing, the requirements will be significantly higher.

Server: Dedicated Windows server with SAS or SSD storage and powerful HD controllers, 10Gbit or more network connection

Server: Dedicated Windows server (SSD or SATA with 4 ports), 4 port network connection or 10Gbit LAN

Server with project sharing: MicroServer with 2-4 SSD drives, 1 Gbit network connection
Server without project sharing: MicroServer with 2-4 hard drives, 1 Gbit network connection

NAS server

Vectorworks project sharing does not require a dedicated server with server OS. A Network Attached Storage (NAS) provides storage capacity and offers the most important server services over the network. Advantages are a good price-performance ratio and fast installation.

Requirements:

Modellen uit de PRO Series (met origineel SMB-protocol), geen consumentenmodellen
Intel processor with sufficient memory (8GB or more)
Four or more hard drive ports
Hard drives suited for continuous use; additional units for future scalability
Four network connections with 10Gbit (module)
Rack-mount or desktop model (depending on placement)
