Everything you save to /work/KellerLab is backed up automatically by the system. This is generally good, unless you're saving files that you only need for the moment, or at most for a few days. We don't need these files long term and we don't need them backed up, but they will be backed up, and **they'll count against our total storage allocation for the next year**. The last thing we want is to pay for storage for a bunch of large temporary files that are also backed up. | Everything you save to /pl/active/KellerLab (and /pl/active/IBG) is backed up automatically by the system.

If the temporary files are deleted by you after they're automatically backed up, they live on for a year before they're finally removed entirely from the system. That's one year of paying for storage for unneeded files. | If the temporary files are deleted by you after they're automatically backed up, they live on for a year before they're finally removed entirely from the system.
