System requirements for SBS 2003 std transition pack

Hello
i have purchased a transition pack for SBS 2003 std with SP1. So the transition pack will convert it into windows 2003 std r2. Before running it, i want to make sure about the system requirements for running it. Specially the disk space(coz i'm already running low on it)
Can anyone post the system requirements, please. i have read some docs, they kind of conflict eah other.

Thanks

Hi there,

I cant find specific information on how much is required from MS but fom this previous question a user had a low disk space issue and required  788MB.

Current size of OS Partition: 14 Gb and free space: 1GB
i just found one article from microsoft which says around 1.33 gb space is required. I just want to confirm it.

i can free up some more space uninstalling unecessary apps and also moving clientApps folder(if needed)
