# Storage

### Quota

Our HPC cluster has 18TB of storage available to all users. By default we enforce a quota of 400GB per user. If you require more please [submit a ticket](https://jira.appstate.edu/servicedesk/customer/portal/8/create/423) and request an increase. Please also provide a timeline for how long you require the additional storage.

### Retention Policy

We routinely clean up the HPC storage to keep space available for new researchers. Data that has not been modified for 60 days will be deleted. Please keep a copy of your data off the HPC. For code we recommend version control in [GitHub.](https://github.com/)

### Archival Storage

For archival storage we can offer S3 though [Wasabi](https://wasabi.com/) for $7 per terabyte per month. Please [submit a ticket](https://jira.appstate.edu/servicedesk/customer/portal/8/create/423) for more information.
