We continue to add about 5TB of new data a week bringing the total size of LAT data at SLAC to xxxTB (xxx L1 output, xxx MC and xxx reprocessed data). 4 new file yyyTB servers arrived at SLAC on Monday and hopefully by the time you are reading this the first one will have been installed averting the need to store older data only on tape. Although the LAT data is all kept on raid arrays with multiple redundant drives we have also acquired an addition 250TB of tapes so that we can continue to keep all data backed up in case of unanticipated disk problems.Image Removed
