    I have macbook air which has 8GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM and 256GB Flash Storage. I'm planing to use pararrel 7 to add window 7 to my laptop. But I have no idea how many RAM n Hard drive I should share. Any ideas? Thank you!!

    Use the defaults, unless you have unusual requirements in terms of apps you are using on Windows.

    If you have a fast SSD drive, 2GB of Ram and 2 CPU cores should usually be enough - I even use this scenario on a non-SSD MBP and it runs quite well...

    It would help to know what you're going to do with it. This isn't a one-size-fits-all matter.
