What are the hardware requirements and recommendations?

In a system with fewer than 40 users, the M-Files server can be run on a computer meeting the Windows operating system requirements. The higher the number of concurrent users, the more is required of the hardware. Free space requirements depend on the number of documents and other objects. The version history, however, does not expand the disk space requirement in a linear fashion, because M-Files Server saves the data in the form of changes between different versions.

The M-Files server and its document vault can be easily transferred to another server machine as system requirements increase.
