+            Individual students have their storage as babbage.ce.pdn.ac.lk:/home/e14000 [Not really, but don't worry]. 
+            This storage is mounted to the same location to every other server (aiken, tesla, kepler, turing, new HP server) through network interfaces. 
+            However, you can request additional storage for your projects on individual servers. This storage is usually faster than babbage.

+            <li>Project name (This should follow the cepdnaclk github repo naming convention. E.g. e14-co542-deep-learning, e15-4yp-object-detection, pg-deepselectnet).</li>

+            We will create a unix group and a folder with chmod 770 permission on the server. 
+            We will update this information on the “Server groups, folders, and datasets” Google sheet on this <a href="https://www.cs.umd.edu/~gihan/resources/pdn-hpc/">web page</a>.
+        </p>
+
+        <p>
+            Please note that every folder comes with an expiry date. 
+            Check the date on the Google sheet and make sure that your endorsing academic staff member sends a time extension request 
+            (e.g. “extend the expiration date of kepler:/e14-4yp-explainable-ml by 6 months”)  to 
+            <a href="webmaster.github.ce@eng.pdn.ac.lk">webmaster.github.ce@eng.pdn.ac.lk</a> when it is close to the expiry date.

+                    We (server admins) are not very strict/stingy about giving project storage. 
+                    We won't come and ask you “Why do you need 500GB on a GPU server for a CO222 project?”. 
+                    Also, we might not even go and ask the endorsing staff member if they actually endorsed your project.
+                    <br>
+                    We want you to use the resources and learn HPC. Our objective is not to gatekeep resources.
