Hello,
I am a new comer for NGS data analysis, and my research team are exploring the hardware configuration for it. As I know, the raw data files are in fastq format which are huge in size (several gigabytes each). I wonder what is the best strategy for storage and transferring the data for analysis. I guess, if I transfer the data through LAN or USB, it still takes a day to transfer 1 sample. It seems not a very effective way, could u please advice?
Besides, I wonder whether the software normally used for NGS data analysis support grid computering?
Many Thanks!
