Subject: REMINDER: scanned images in NAS-space need to be transferred and erased asap

Dear colleagues,

The biobank slide scanner has been in constant use  and now the university NAS-storage space is nearly full. Please go through your folders asap (and also proactively) in  NAS and remove + transfer your images as soon as possible or at latest on Feb 5th. Let us know if this deadline causes insurmountable problems. After that all image files older than 2 month will be permanently removed by the Biobank staff. The researchers are strongly advised to see to that their images will be cleared from NAS promptly within 1 month of the scanning date. NAS has a limited space of 10 Tb (which fills up quite quickly) and thus it is not intended for long term storage of images.

Please note that the university IT-services offers backed-up storage space (inquire them for current prices).
