Some people get so concerned with HW resources for a simple home server, with a few players on it. Back in 2009, there was a thread, from someone running a public server, using 8 GB ram, running 77 static zones, etc, with a population on it. That person was nilbog, talking about the P99 server back then. But there has been a gazillion performance tweaks to the main Emu source code, since then.

You can find the thread here: http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=30097

As far as disk space, even my public server is only using 72GB total for both the Debian OS and the Emu server, which includes tons of database backups, logs, etc.

It takes very little for a server, with a few friends on it. Even Akkadius once posted on the old wiki, long ago, "It could run on a toaster".
