 **Hellbender** is the latest High Performance Computing (HPC) resource available to researchers and students (with sponsorship by a PI) within the UM-System. **Hellbender** is the latest High Performance Computing (HPC) resource available to researchers and students (with sponsorship by a PI) within the UM-System.
  
-**Hellbender** consists of 222 mixed x86-64 CPU nodes providing 18,688 cores as well as 28 GPU nodes consisting of a mix of Nvidia GPU's (see hardware section for more details). Hellbender is attached to our Research Data Ecosystem ('RDE') that consists of 8PB of high performance and general purpose research storage. RDE can be accessible from other devices outside of Hellbender to create a single research data location across different computational environments.+**Hellbender** consists of 222 mixed x86-64 CPU nodes providing 22,272 cores as well as 28 GPU nodes consisting of a mix of Nvidia GPU's (see hardware section for more details).

-The cost associated with using the RDE tape archive is $8/TB for short term data kept in inside the tape library for 1-3 years or $140 per tape rounded to the number of tapes for tapes sent offsite for long term retention up to 10 years. We send these tapes off to record management where they are stored in a climate-controlled environment. Each tape from the current generation LTO 9 holds approximately 18TB of data These are flat onetime costs, and you have the option to do both a short term in library copy, and a longer-term offsite copy, or one or the other, providing flexibility.+The cost associated with using the RDE tape archive is $8/TB for short term data kept in inside the tape library for 1-3 years or $144 per tape rounded to the number of tapes for tapes sent offsite for long term retention up to 10 years.
