Service Details

  • Enterprise network storage systems offer remote access and redundant systems with snapshots and off-site backups. 
  • Scratch (temporary) file systems are available to centrally-managed computational systems to support data intensive computing.

Availability

This service is available to the following groups:

  • Faculty
  • Staff

Charges and Fees

Up to 2 TB of research share storage (per researcher) is available free of charge. Allocations beyond this cost $.35 per GB per year.
