Server or NAS

Anonymous · ‎2014-05-27

Hi,

I have a simple question. BIM Server requires a Server Computer or a home Cloud storage or NAS (Network Attached Storage) system is really enough for the Teamwork file?

I don't know what a NAS is but the BIM Server application can be on the same computer you are running ArchiCAD on. Currently I have both ArchiCAD and the BIM Server installed on my laptop.

Andras,

All data access to the information shared by the BIM Server application goes through the application. So, a NAS does nothing... and actually may decrease performance as only the computer hosting the BIM Server app will be accessing the NAS... therefore internal storage will be faster for all users.
