If the Services Manager PC is supporting more than 3 devices, it must have at least 512 MB of RAM. ■ While a fast IDE drive (7200 RPM) is acceptable, a fast SCSI drive (15,000 RPM) improves throughput. NTFS is the required drive format. ■ Desktop or workstation P4 or Xeon class machines with more memory are more effective than traditional server-class machines, such as Intel Pentium III class machines with high I/O throughput. For the maximum number of devices supported for each hardware configuration and usage scenario, refer to the eCopy Web site. Your company's network configurations, the amount of simultaneous scanning, and the use of the Create Searchable Text option can affect system performance, which in turn can affect the supported number of devices.

Hardware configuration guidelines
To help you gauge hardware requirements, there are three typical usage scenarios and the
hardware requirements for each scenario (see Table 52).
For the most effective throughput, consider the following information:
■
Memory is the most important element in the achievement of efficient throughput. If the
Services Manager PC is supporting more than 3 devices, it must have at least 512 MB of
RAM.
■
While a fast IDE drive (7200 RPM) is acceptable, a fast SCSI drive (15,000 RPM) improves
throughput. NTFS is the required drive format.
■
Desktop or workstation P4 or Xeon class machines with more memory are more effective
than traditional server-class machines, such as Intel Pentium III class machines with high
I/O throughput.
For the maximum number of devices supported for each hardware configuration and usage
scenario, refer to the eCopy Web site. Your company's network configurations, the amount of
simultaneous scanning, and the use of the Create Searchable Text option can affect system
performance, which in turn can affect the supported number of devices.

Scenario type
Description
Hardware requirements
General office
use
A typical office environment where
multiple multifunction peripherals (MFPs)
support a combination of printing,
copying, and scanning.
Equivalent to an Intel® Pentium® 4 (P4)
2.4 GHz machine with Hyper-Threading
enabled and with 1 GB of RAM
(recommended). The minimum RAM
requirement is 512 MB.
Light production
scanning
An environment where multiple devices
scan simultaneously for continuous periods
with occasional creation of searchable text.
Requires CPU-intensive OCR processing by
the Services Manager.
Dual processor P4 3.2 GHz machines with
Hyper-Threading enabled and with at least
1 GB of RAM.
Heavy
production
scanning
Same as light production scanning except
that searchable text is created for all
scanned pages. Includes file batching.
Dual processor Xeon machines with at
least 1 GB of RAM.
