There is no official minimum, although I would not consider it feasible to run a server without at least 10 GB of hard drive space or 128 MB of RAM. Keep in mind that if you are running a server with low specifications, it will most likely run faster if it is running Linux (and a server version of Linux, at that) as opposed to another operating system.

∙ 14y agoTo run a web server, you need:
1. A computer
2. A way to connect it to a network
Web servers have been implemented on hysterically old (by modern standards) computers. There are web servers that can run on the original IBM PC, which has a 4.77 MHz Intel 8088 processor, a maximum of 256 KB of RAM, and could have a hard drive if you could afford one. The bottom line is that the purpose of the web server and the volume of traffic will greatly determine what you need for a server, hardware-wise. The aforementioned server on an IBM PC could serve maybe 10 people reliably with static web pages. If you want to run a database server, use PHP, need remote shell access, need to serve thousands of people, or have lots of data, the requirements will naturally go up.
