> [@nerdatwork](#): > > How is it just a waste ? It’s a waste because I paid for the resources to keep the node running, and got almost nothing because the data is deleted after some days and no real data to fill the gap. Because we lost that 10PB customer to the Select network. Multiple PB customers in the pipeline? Where? For the last 30 days I don’t see any growth in my nodes, same as the OP and many people here. ---

How is that a waste? > [@nyancodex](#): > > data to fill the gap. What gap? The way I see it we all got a nice bonus for the last 1-2 months – -for the massive amount of a test data we kept for 30 days. > [@nyancodex](#): > > Because we lost that 10PB customer to the Select network. “We” did not lose the customer. We never had this customer in the first place. > [@nyancodex](#): > > For the last 30 days I don’t see any growth in my nodes I think you are confusing weather with climate. ---

47-63 months, pretty old. They were full many times and many times are emptied as low as 2TB of total used. Right now they are still have some space, but it’s filled every day. So, I think after a month they would be full again. Or, if my suspicion is correct, and the most of the data (from US1) is TTL, then they may be empty again to receive the next batch of the similar data. However, they also have an egress, so not all data is backups I would assume. ---

> [@Julio](#): > > So that was entirely SLC? No. At least not on my nodes. For some reason 80% of usage from US1 customers. And it didn’t change during the test too, which was a surprise for me. > [@Aleksman4o](#): > > i’ve seen last test traffic on 30 august, so 30 day garbage should steel be removing. You may easily check that - measure the subfolder `pmw...` in the trash and blobs. > [@nyancodex](#): > > 100GB each node or 100GB for total? Total. One is full, the second will be soon, third still has some TBs to go. ![image](https://storj-s3.bcdn.literatehosting.net/original/3X/1/c/1c63f721ec16ff08052b66bdf08320d028115b91.png) I checked the reported (paid) used space on the Avg graph (but not the average itself, it wouldn’t be accurate). ---

> [@nyancodex](#): > > 100GB each node or 100GB for total? Did you subtract that number from the amount of data deleted daily? I get about 30GB per node. But the total used space still shinking because the deleted data always bigger than received data. That’s why I wanted to focus attention on the total amount of data paid after a specific amount of time. You can have 100gb (some days it happened) but after 12 months, you will definitely not have 36TB of paid data 🙂 … or rather, that’s what I’d like to clarify in this thread ---

Exactly. But I do see a steady grow, not reducing ![Screenshot_2024-09-27-14-35-50-870_com.brave.browser-edit](https://storj-s3.bcdn.literatehosting.net/original/3X/c/1/c13061b3733defeaa5731582d66238303361ecb9.jpeg) At least for this month. I do not have an external monitoring. ---
