Turbo Research Storage

Turbo is a high-capacity, high-performance network storage solution, providing secure and reliable data storage to researchers across the University of Michigan. Turbo is also designed to be highly flexible. While it is tuned for large files (roughly 1 megabyte in size or larger), it is still capable of efficiently storing small files, such as: word documents, spreadsheets, image files, etc.

Available to our High Performance Computing Clusters (such as Great Lakes, Lighthouse, and Armis2) as well as to local hosts in labs (or at home), Turbo enables our researchers to access and leverage their data quickly and easily.

Additionally, Turbo supports the storing of sensitive data on HIPAA compliant systems, such as the Armis2 cluster managed by ARC.
