-Once the Analysis stage of the [research data life cycle](https://guides.nyu.edu/dataservices#s-lg-box-33756318) has completed, you should compress your data before moving it onto the archive (`/archive/$USER`). For instance you can use the `tar` command to compress all your data into a single `tar.gz` file. The HPC Archive file-system is not accessible by running jobs; it is suitable for long-term data storage. Each user has access to a default disk quota of **2TB** and ***20,000 inode (files) limit***. The rather low limit on the number of inodes per user is intentional. The archive file-system is available only ***on login nodes*** of Torch. The archive file-system is backed up daily.
