Start9 is committed to ensuring that StartOS is accessible. It will always be possible to build your own Start9 server similar to the ones we sell. Below you will find the requirements to build a Server Lite, based on the Raspberry Pi.

Hardware Requirements
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: **READ CAREFULLY!** Start9 recommends **AGAINST** using an SSD with the Raspberry Pi. It can lead to server instability and data corruption. Instead, we recommend using a large, **high endurance** microSD card. If you insist on using an SSD, please ensure you are using a high-quality USB cord and the SSD is *independently* powered by a high-quality powered USB hub or case with powered expansion board. Even then, you will likely encounter issues. See the `Community Hub <https://community.start9.com/c/hacking/>`_ for more info.

- Raspberry Pi 4 (8GB RAM)
|
|
|
|
- Power Supply (20w - 5v/4a recommended)
|
|
|
|
- MicroSD Card (**high endurance**, 64GB *minimum*) (if you go against our recommendation and use an SSD, you will only need a 32GB microSD card, and it does not need to be high endurance)
