# CloudNine Analyst: How Much Space Do I Need to Process My UFDR or PST?

## How Much Space Do I Need to Process My UFDR or PST?

When uploading a Cellebrite UFDR or Microsoft PST, you will need adequate space for the project files to be created. These project files are what is uploaded to CloudNine Analyst but is saved locally first. As a general rule of thumb, have a 1:1 size allocation (if you have a 30GB UFDR, have 30 GB's of available space).

 

If the proper space is not available, you will be prompted when you click "process". 

 

If your main drive doesn't have the available space, [you can map your Projects Folder](https://kb.cloudnine.com/how-to-change-the-location-of-your-projects-and-logs-folder?hsLang=en) to an external hard drive or another local drive.
