At a minimum you need a processor wit The necessary hard drive space largely depends on the size of the repos you want to store in GitLab. But as a *rule of thumb* you should have at least twice as much -free space as your all repos combined take up. You need twice the storage because [GitLab satellites](https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/blob/master/doc/install/structure.md) contain an extra copy of each repo. Apart from a local hard drive you can also mount a volume that supports the network file system (NFS) protocol. This volume might be located on a file server, a network attached storage (NAS) device, a storage area network (SAN) or on an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Block Store (EBS) volume. +free space as your all repos combined take up.

This volume might be located on a file server, a network attached storage (NAS) device, a storage area network (SAN) or on an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Block Store (EBS) volume. If you have enough RAM memory and a recent CPU the speed of GitLab is mainly limited by hard drive seek times. Having a fast drive (7200 RPM and up) or a solid state drive (SSD) will improve the responsiveness of GitLab. # Installation troubles and reporting success or failure -If you have troubles installing GitLab following the official installation guide +If you have troubles installing GitLab following the [official installation guide](installation.md) or want to share your experience installing GitLab on a not officially supported -platform, please follow the the contribution guide (see CONTRIBUTING.md). +platform, please follow the the [contribution guide](/CONTRIBUTING.md).
