Data storage
Data storage on the MinIT is an advantage for remote sequencing on a MinION Mk 1B and MinIT combination. The ability to store 450+ GB of data facilitates sequencing and storage of data from more than one experiment.
A sequencing experiment can yield tens of gigabits of data, so it is recommended that the user transfers the basecalled data from the data folder on the MinIT to a long term storage solution or larger scale SSD.
For instructions on how to transfer data, see the relevant sections of this protocol, prefixed 'Data transfer on MinIT - for [your operating system]'.
The Data storage capabilities can be seen on the Admin interface. Used and available data storage can be seen from the Admin interface. Here the used storage capacity (left, 71) and the total (right, 459) can as a proportion of the total capacity.
