+==== /bigtemp temporary disk storage ====
+Bigtemp is a large filesystem available from our Linux systems.  From a Linux server, bigtemp is accessible in the root directory ''%%/bigtemp%%''.  To store files in this filesystem, create a folder in ''%%/bigtemp%%'' with the same name as your computing ID.
+<code>
+abc1de@host ~ $ cd /bigtemp
+abc1de@host /bigtemp $ mkdir abc1de
+abc1de@host /bigtemp $ cd abc1de
+abc1de@host /bigtemp/abc1de $
+</code>
+You will have ownership of the new directory that you have created.  Use ''%%chmod%%'' to adjust the permissions on this new directory if desired.
+We also provide /bigtemp2, another volatile storage space.
+Bigtemp is **volatile scratch space** and **not** long term storage. **It is not backed up.** When storage gets low on this volume we will scan through and delete files with the oldest modification time.
+=== SAMBA Access ===
+''%%/bigtemp%%'' is available to mount via SAMBA.  //[[storage_home_directories#samba|See here for more information]]//
