This page will show the technical details and properties of this storage, which will hopefully help you make a decision if this is something you want. Any storage we handout we call a &ldquo;volume&rdquo;. For these ZFS volumes:</p> <dl> <dt>Size</dt> <dd>Storage size can be as large as you want, but smaller than the amount we can put in a single machine. Currently (2024+) we can buy machines with roughly 140-200 TB storage.</dd> <dt>Snapshots</dt> <dd>On this we enable <a href="../zfs-share-snapshot/">snapshots</a>, so that you can retrieve (deleted) files your self.</dd> <dt>Backup</dt> <dd>Each volume will be back upped to local S3 storage. This should be thought of as disaster recovery, and restoring from the cloud should (hopefully) be rarely needed.</dd> </dl> <p><a href="https://dhz.science.ru.nl" target="_blank">All of these volumes are visible in DIY in the &ldquo;Storage&rdquo; section</a> if you have access to them. <a href="https://cncz.science.ru.nl/nl/howto/storage/#bestellen" target="_blank">How to order such storage can be seen here.</a></p>
