| 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.

| 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. | While not absolutely essential, more than 1GB of ram would be helpful.
