WatuOS installer images are available to WatuFlex partners only. Every Watu Box is installed and handed over by a certified WatuFlex partner, so clients never need to download or install anything themselves.
Have this machine ready before your partner arrives. The system should refuse to install below the minimum rather than produce a slow system and an unhappy customer. These three are not negotiable at any installation.
| Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|
| i3-class processor | i5-class, 2016 or later |
| 8 GB RAM | 16 GB where several applications run together |
| 240 GB SSD | 256 GB SSD or larger |
| Wired Ethernet | Wired Ethernet, fixed local address |
| TPM 2.0 optional | TPM 2.0 enabled in BIOS — Intel PTT or AMD fTPM |
Ex-corporate mini machines from about 2016 onward are the sweet spot, because corporate buyers required TPM 2.0: HP EliteDesk Mini and Elite Slice, Dell OptiPlex Micro, Lenovo ThinkCentre Tiny.
