Pentium 3 or better with at least 256 MB of RAM is recommended.

Servers |
| |
Drain
Tracker data is typically stored on a file server running
the TCP/IP protocol, with the
program installed on each workstation. An alternative is have one
computer in a peer to peer network act as a 'server' and have other
workstations access it that way. You can also choose to run the program
stand alone on either a standard workstation or a laptop.

Backups |
| |
You can
include Drain Tracker files in a nightly backup to tape or other media.
You can also create mirror images of the database modules at any time.

Laptop Use |
| |
Drain
Tracker can be installed on a laptop for out in the field use, however
the data is typically read only. If this option is required a utility is
provided to copy the data to the laptop at any time. An exception to the
read only rule would
be a situation where a laptop is being used in a stand-alone scenario with the
working data stored on it. |
