Installing SW Pro and PDMWorks on a new machine

Installing SW Pro and PDMWorks on a new machine

Installing SW Pro and PDMWorks on a new machine

(OP)
I just received a new SW Office Pro and PDMWorks Network Standalone Client in the box with a dongle. I will be installing these on a new CAD workstation and shared server that never had SW on it before.
My questions,
1) Should I download and install the latest SP4 initialy rather than installing from the CD's and then upgrading to SP4?
2) Does the dongle go on the Shared server or my workstation?

I do my own hack IT administrator so I need some help
I tried calling my VAR but no answer...

Download what's on the CD first, then upgrade to the new SP. The dongle goes on the server.
PDMW will go in its own folder (separate from SW), the Vault will go in its own folder.
