My issue is:

I am looking to set up a Cuckoo Sandbox environment on a server, and had a few questions regarding system requirements. Obviously it is going to vary by process load, and other various factors. I am curious what would be suggested for

No. of CPUs, amount of memory needed, and recommended disk size? Even if somebody can just give me the minimum Cuckoo requirements, and I can make my adjustments as I feel necessary

666 cpu, 666gb ram etc hahaha, now seriously, provide number of tasks which you would like analyze per hour than we could suggest something, doing it blind not make any sense

@doomedraven So answer me this, what are the minimums for Cuckoo? Because we are unsure of what we are going to be doing yet. For all we know, we could set it up, find we no longer want to use it and scrap it. Or, we could set it up, and really take advantage and doing a lot of analyses

minimums one pc which can run vm with the specification which you set can be 1,2,3,666 cpus, the same for ram, the same for rest, so you should know which spec will have your vms

we could set it up, find we no longer want to use it and scrap it. Or, we could set it up, and really take advantage and doing a lot of analyses

calculate what your vms specs will be and you will have all you need, then you can get the timeout which you will set in cuckoo and if you will have enabled memdump enabled, count 5 min per analysis, etc

again blind is hard to say something
