# Sentry Node Hardware Requirements The Sentry Node software supports Windows Desktop, Mac, and Linux (64-bit required). These are the current resources required for running the Sentry Node Software with up to 100 license keys:\ \ **4 GB RAM**\ **2 CPU Cores** \ **60 GB Disk Space**\ **x86/X64 Processor**\ **Stable Internet Connection** When incorporating additional keys into your node, it is expected that the hardware prerequisites will also see an escalation. However, it is not mandatory to allocate a separate machine for each key. The system's scalability is anticipated to accommodate dozens of keys on a single machine, and potentially even more. \ The Sentry Node Software supports ARM Processors like the Apple M1/M2 chips.\ \ These requirements are subject to change. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
