* **`/psi/home`**, as this contains a small amount of data, is the only directory where we can provide daily snapshots for one week. This can be found in the following directory **`/psi/home/.snapshot/`**

* ***When a user leaves PSI, she or her supervisor/team are responsible to backup and move the data out from the cluster***: every few months, the storage space will be recycled for those old users who do not have an existing and valid PSI account.
