Quotas
All services up to the listed quotas are provided to UW Researchers at no cost to them.
Any services above standard service quotas will be charged rates based upon our Cost of Resources Policy and Price Sheet for UW Users (coming soon).

Rent space on shared hardware: There is a set price per TB per year. Please contact ARCC for the exact price.
Purchase additional storage disks to be incorporated into Beartooth: This option is appropriate for groups that need more space than the free offering, but don’t have the extreme space or performance demands that would require investing in dedicated hardware.
Buy your own dedicated storage hardware for Research Computing to host: If you need more than about 15 TB of storage or very high performance, dedicated hardware is more economical and appropriate. The exact choices are always evolving. Please contact ARCC for more information.
Costs Associated with Storage
If users require quota increases on storage, they may apply for a one-time, no-cost capacity increase by providing written justification for the amount of extra storage and it’s benefit to the UW mission of research, education and economic development.
This capacity increase lasts for the life of the storage system (typically 3 years), the increase must be approved by ARCC Leadership, and is subject to a 10TB max limit.
In all other cases, the user will be charged per Cost of Resources as listed here.
Users may request capacity increases on the ARCC Service Portal.
