Dear Niyanta
That sounds like it will be fine for Arivis Vision4d.
If anything,  you can probably  save a bit of money as you do need that
much ram for Vision4d.
In order to support large data sets on any hardware, Vision4d does not try
to cache the entire data set in Ram, only the current portion that is
required for processing.
As such, typically light sheet workstations are fine with 64-128 gb of ram.
Running with 256-512 gb won't be a problem, but we suggest you buy some
more storage instead. :)



Best Regards
