 #### HPC Archive
 Once the Analysis stage of the research data lifecycle has completed, <ins>_HPC users should **tar** their data and code into a single tar.gz file and then copy the  file to their archive directory (**`/archive/$USER`**_).</ins> 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 Greene. The archive file system is backed up daily.

 ## Data-Transfer nodes
-Attached to the NYU HPC cluster Greene, the Greene Data Transfer Node (gDTN) are  nodes optimized for transferring data between cluster file systems (e.g. scratch)  and other endpoints outside the NYU HPC clusters, including user laptops and desktops. The gDTNs have 100-Gb/s Ethernet connections to the High Speed Research Network (HSRN) and are connected to the HDR Infiniband fabric of the HPC clusters. More information on the hardware characteristics is available at [Greene spec sheet](../10_spec_sheet.mdx).

+Torch was tested in June 2025 using the [LINPACK benchmark system](https://top500.org/project/linpack/), which is the basis for all HPC systems ranked on the Top500 list. It had a theoretical maximum performance of 12.25 PF/s thanks to its powerful GPU resources, of which LINPACK was able to use 10.79 PF/s, thus placing it at [#133 on the listed](https://top500.org/system/180363/).
