# Ollama Installation Ollama supports multiple operating systems, including macOS, Windows, Linux, and running via Docker containers. Ollama has low hardware requirements and is designed to allow users to easily run, manage, and interact with large language models locally. * **CPU**: Multi-core processor (4 cores or more recommended). * **GPU**: If you plan to run large models or perform fine-tuning, it is recommended to use a GPU with higher computational capability (such as NVIDIA's CUDA support). * **Memory**: At least 8GB RAM, 16GB or more recommended when running larger models. * **Storage**: Sufficient hard disk space is needed to store pre-trained models, typically requiring 10GB to hundreds of GB, depending on the model size. * **Software Requirements**: Make sure the latest version of Python is installed on your system (if you plan to use the Python SDK).
