Dear all,
We have large number of MRI volumes to be segmented using FAST
(256x256 slices). We are deciding on a new computer for this purpose.
We are considering the following options:
1) Linux with single Xeon QuadCore processor (4 cores)
2) Linux with double Xeon QuadCore processors (8 cores)
3) Mac Pro
We are leaning towards a Linux based system for cost efficiency. I
have a few questions:
- What is the benefit (processing time?) of running FAST on 8 cores
rather than 4 cores?
- Do we need to install other software to run FAST on multiple processors?
- How much RAM is recommended?
- Is there an advantage to Mac Pro?
Thank you in advance.
