## System requirements

Kubo IPFS requires 512MiB of memory and can run an IPFS node on a Raspberry Pi. However, how much disk space your IPFS installation takes up depends on how much data you're sharing. A base installation takes up about 12MB of disk space. One can enable automatic garbage collection via [--enable-gc](/reference/kubo/cli/#ipfs-daemon) and adjust the [default maximum disk storage](https://github.com/ipfs/kubo/blob/v0.13.1/docs/config.md#datastorestoragemax) for data retrieved from other peers.

While you can use IPFS right now, it's better to add `ipfs.exe` to your `PATH` by using the following steps.
