Memory Requirements

The HP xw8400 uses DDR2-667 ECC Fully Buffered DIMMs. The amount of memory required
for your Autodesk Effects or Editing system depends on the resolution of your projects, the type
of work you perform and, in some cases, the platform on which you are running the application.
Refer to the Software Installation Guide for your product to determine the memory
requirements for your Effects or Editing application.

Ensuring Proper Environmental Conditions

You should consider the following environmental guidelines for all hardware configuration:
Make sure the rack in which hardware components are installed is open or ventilated. Follow
the ventilation specifications that apply to your system.
Place all components in an air-conditioned environment. All hardware components generate
heat and must be kept cool. See
Keep all hardware components in a clean, dust-free location.
Minimize vibration and humidity.
Do not block the vents on the component housing.
Do not drape anything, such as a jacket or a blanket, over hardware components.
Minimize electromagnetic noise by separating digital data and power cables from analog
audio cables and running them in different cable ducts.

Power and Air Conditioning Requirements

system with all of the required peripheral and certified components.
