If you're using Pixinsight for processing, there are some threads on that forum about PC specs - multithreaded processors, lots of RAM, lots of swap disks.

Oh yes, the decimal point was too far to the right! Yes its 9gb for 6 hours of imaging and I suppose something a bit less for darks, flats etc. I delete the individual exposures taken for darks once I make a master dark so that saves some space.
