Where data lives across the lab.
| Where | Best for | Quota | Survives | Backed up? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Torch /home/$USER |
Configs, code, light envs | 50 GB / 30k inodes | Indefinite | Snapshots |
Torch /scratch/$USER |
Active HPC jobs | 5 TB / 1M inodes | 60 days since last access | No |
| Torch project space | Long-lived shared HPC data | Purchased per request (TODO: lab amount) | Indefinite while allocation active | Yes (daily, 30-day retention) |
| Workstation | Interactive work, shared datasets | TODO | Until the box dies | No |
| R2 (Cloudflare) | Paper assets | 10 GB free, then pay-as-you-go | Indefinite | Yes (R2 is durable) |
