-OMV/Debian will run on i386 32-bit platforms, with 1GB of ram or even less. Hardware in this category will work well as a basic NAS server for home use, but performance expectations should be adjusted accordingly.
+OMV7 with Debian 12 will run on i386 32-bit platforms, with 1GB of ram or even less. Hardware in this category will work well as a basic NAS server for home use, but performance expectations should be adjusted accordingly.
 While not absolutely essential, more than 1GB of ram would be helpful.  For file caching, in support of normal file system operations, performance is better with more RAM.
