Torrent Suite Software 5.4 Help

Increase file storage and available disk space

You can increase networked file storage for Ion Torrent™ sequencing runs and increase the Torrent Server available disk space with the Torrent Storage™ NAS device. A field service engineer or administrator typically installs these devices.

The Torrent Storage™ NAS device can attach directly to a Torrent Server or Ion S5™ instrument, or can connect over a local network. After the device is configured, it can be used to save data locally in the lab, transfer data directly and quickly, store data reliably with disk failure tolerance, and expand storage space.

Transfer files directly to the Torrent Storage™ NAS device to increase available disk space.
Note:

You can transfer all files that are generated from an Ion instrument and saved on the Torrent Server through the Torrent Suite™ Software. After data transfer, the files are available for re–analysis or archiving.
