7. Bruker TruLive3D Data management


Data acquired on the Bruker TrLive3D will typically be very large, on the order of TeraBytes of data. The Luxendo computer has enough internal capacity to store up to ~20TB of data. This seems like a lot of storage but we are asking the users to transfer their data to their own server/storage devices immediately after an experiment so that there is always a lot of space for the next user to save their experiment.

Data management is going to be a major challenge for working with the Bruker TruLive3D Light-sheet microscope. Please read this page carefully and plan accordingly.

Data acquisition

Option 1: Write your data locally on the Luxendo computer. This is the recommended safest option.

Option 2: Write your data directly on your network drive. This may work for short experiments and save you the transfer process. Unfortunately, the internet is not always reliable, to avoid any interruption during a long experiment over several hours we recommend writing data on the Luxendo computer. 

In doubt always check with facility staff about how and where you should save your data.
