Below is a table of all available storage on Unity.
| Mountpoint | Name | Location | Type | Quota | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| /home | Home directories | Everywhere | HDD | 10 GB | Home directories should be used only for user init files. |
| /work | Work PI directories | Everywhere | SSD | 3 TB | Work should be used as the primary location for running cluster jobs. This is a shared folder for all users in the PI group. |
| /project | Project directories | Everywhere | HDD | Varying | Project directories are created on request. Good for large dataset storage or any larger storage that is not directly used for job I/O. Email hpc@umass.edu to request. A common use case is generating job output in /work and copying to permanent storage in /project afterwards. Not for job I/O |
| /scratch/workspace | Scratch Workspace space | Everywhere (Intended for Compute) | SSD | Up to 50 TB | Space meant for a time-limited window that spans across jobs. See HPC Workspace documentation for more information. |
