Install Sophos Home Edition on Sophos XG 230 rev 1 - would that work?

Question

I have a used Sophos XG 230 rev 1, does the hardware specifications support installation of Sophos Home Edition? I am struggling to find the specs for XG 230 Rev.1 but I believe it only runs on 2 Core instead or 4 Core required for Sophos Home Edition? 
 Help appreciated - thanks!

A slight misunderstanding, the home licence allows for a maximum of 4 cores, does not require 4 cores. 
 
 XG230 rev 1 specifications.

 The XG 230 rev 2 has a dual core pentium, so I would not expect the rev 1 to be more powerful.

Hello Chris M , Thank you for reaching out to the community, here is the datasheet for XG 23, once you have installed Sophos Home Edition , you can use the following commands in the SFOS in the advance shell [On the CLI, select option 5. Device Management , then option 3. Advanced Shell .]: - 1.) cat /proc/cpuinfo 2.) cat /proc/meminfo

Hi Chris, 
 I run Sophos Home on an SG 210 rev1 appliance and its working great. Also running on a SG 330 on another side.
