Data
Personal Data
You should save your personal data (created files) to a folder on the H: drive which is secured by a nightly backup. We can also restore data from a previous day if you delete something accidentally. For a reqeust, send an email to support@ee.ethz.ch
The W: drive contains application configuration files of your application. Do not delete these folders "to make space" or "clean up a bit".
Local Temporary Data
On every Windows host, there is a folder called C:\Scratch (the equivalent folder on a Linux box would be /scratch). We recommend to use this folder for processing large amounts of computing data. This will also result in a performance boost because you will not read and write data via the network.
Please be aware that C:\Scratch is not secured by a backup. If the harddisc crashes, your data will be lost.
