Embodiments herein are directed to a method for installing a program across multiple memories. The method includes calculating a memory space requirement of the program. It may be determined that a first available memory space in a first memory of the first computer system is smaller than the memory space requirement. The first memory is a default memory for installing the program. Upon determining that the first available memory space in the first memory is smaller than the memory space requirement, the method may perform the step of identifying a second memory in communication with the first computer system that has a second available memory space. The first and second available memory spaces, when combined, are sufficient for the memory space requirement to install files of the program. The files of the program may be installed in the first and second memories.
