Primavera on laptop/server, memory issues

Hi

I am currently working with another two planners on an assignment that requires us to import a significant number of P3e files (xer) into Primavera in our laptops, we use laptops rather than a server due to travelling etc

By importing these files we have quickly reached the maximum storage available within our laptops resulting in a considerable slowdown in the performance of our laptops and preventing us from importing all the required programmes for analysis.

Our office IT are not aware of what our options are in terms of moving to a server and was hoping that i could get some information here as to what our options are.

All our Primavera are fully licensed and paid for.

Thanks in advance
