What is the data storage charge?
Some researchers choose to save the scaled intensity files from their run. Due to the large size of these files, we do not generate and save these files by default, so you must request this before a run is started. The charge associated with this is the cost for the server space and data backup. Upon completion of every run, we automatically save and upload all of the primary data including the color-space sequence data (.csfasta files), the sequence quality data file (.qual files) and the run statistics file (.stat files) for each sample to your personal profile on the website at no additional cost.
