Client & Server System Requirements for SME

SME Technical Specifications:


SME and system requirements for Client Machine

  • Minimum CPU required: 800 MHz minimum (Get a good mid-range size and use that)
  • Minimum memory required: 2GB - 4GB recommended
  • Minimum free hard disk space required: 300 MB, 1 GB recommended
  • Operating system version: Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8
  • Minimum screen resolution: 1024 x 768
  • Network: 10MHz minimum, 100MHz or higher recommended


SME minimum system requirements for Server

  • Minimum CPU required: 1.5 GHz, 2 or more GHz recommended.
  • Memory/RAM: Ram requirement is a factor of the database size. Plan on 1 gig per gig of database size plus 2-gig minimum for operating system use.
    • MS SQL should not be installed on a domain controller due to security considerations and domain controller default SQL databases
    • MS SQL version should be matched to server operating system 2008 – SQL 2008 R2, 2012 – SQL 2012 R2
    • Server should have a separate drive for SQL Temp database usage as this database is written to often in high volume operations
  • Minimum free hard disk space required: 4 GB minimum, 10 GB preferred
    • Servers should be using a Raid 10 configuration with a separate drive for log files and temp database usage
    • A separate partition can suffice if another drive is not available
  • Minimum screen resolution: 1024 x 768 – SME is optimized for 1280 x 1200
  • Network: 10Mbps min, 100Mbps or 1Gbps recommended.
  • Operating System: Vista/Win 7/Win 8/Win 8.1, or Windows Server 2008 STD R2/2011 STD, 2012 R2 STD, SQL 2014 – not approved yet:
    • MS Does not recommend installing MS SQL Server on a domain controller or SBS operating system. We also do not recommend installing on a server running MS Exchange Server.

    • Note: The Express Edition is free and has no user limit, but does have a limit a 10GB limit for 2008 and 2012. This is sufficient size for most companies unless you plan utilizing stored documents. High5 suggests using a separate SQL instance for SME. We can share a SQL instance however certain maintenance tasks may take the other databases off-line while performing the maintenance
    • Express version are limited in memory usage, Database size, processor cores, and in basic optimization functions
