Hardware Recommendations

This section gives the recommended minimum hardware recommendations for Lync Server 2013 servers.

These are the Lync Server 2013 Mediation Server processor recommendations:

• Dual processor, quad-core 2.0GHz or faster

• Four-way processor, dual-core 2.0GHz or faster

Note

Lync Server 2013 is only a 64-bit application and requires a 64-bit-capable processor. This is generally not an issue with any modern hardware, but be sure to verify that any legacy hardware supports a 64-bit operating system before attempting to use it for a Mediation Server.

This is the Lync Server 2013 Mediation Server memory recommendation:

• 16GB RAM

These are the Lync Server 2013 Mediation Server disk recommendations:

• 10K RPM HDD

• High-performance solid state drive (SSD) with performance equal to or better than 10K RPM HDD

• 2x RAID 10 (striped and mirrored) 15K RPM disks for database data files

These are the Lync Server 2013 Mediation Server network recommendations:

• Dual 1Gbps network adapters (recommended)

• Single 1Gbps network adapter (supported)

Note

When using multiple network adapters, it is recommended to use them only for fault tolerance. This means network adapters should be used for failover only and should not be combined for greater throughput.
