## Requirements

**Minimum hardware requirements** for collators:
+ 4-cores CPU
+ 200GB extendable NVMe space
+ 8GB RAM


However, it is recommended that you launch a collator using the **standard hardware requirements** for [Polkadot validators](https://wiki.polkadot.network/docs/maintain-guides-how-to-validate-polkadot#standard-hardware):
It is recommended that you launch a collator using the **standard hardware requirements** for [Polkadot validators](https://wiki.polkadot.network/docs/maintain-guides-how-to-validate-polkadot#standard-hardware):
+ CPU - Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700K CPU @ 4.20GHz.
+ Storage - A NVMe solid state drive. Should be reasonably sized to deal with the blockchain growth. Currently the Kusama db uses around 90GB of space. We recommend 200-240GB for first months, but it will need to be re-evaluated every six months. Again: The ability to expand this disk space is required.
+ Storage - A NVMe solid state drive. Should be reasonably sized to deal with the blockchain growth. Currently the Kusama db uses around 360GB of space. We recommend using 700-750GB for first months, but it will need to be re-evaluated every six months. Again: The ability to expand this disk space is required.
+ Memory - 64GB ECC


In this article we use next specifications:
+ 4 VCPU
+ 240GB extendable volume for collator's databases
+ 700 GB of NVMe space for collator's databases
+ 8GB RAM
