 There are **two different methods** to connect to the mass storage. 
 
-If you want to access data stored on the mass storage via your computer's file browser, mainly to work on small files or to transfer small files from your computer to the mass storage, you need to connect from your computer's file browser, using the `SAMBA` protocol. 
+If you want to access data stored on the mass storage via your computer's file browser, to transfer small files from your computer to the mass storage, you need to connect from your computer's file browser, using the `SAMBA` protocol. 
 
 To manage large files stored on the mass storage or to analyse them from the GIGA High Performance Computing cluster, you need to connect from the command line terminal, using the `SSH` protocol.
 
 **For both methods**, you need to be on the Uliège of CHU network (wired or WIFI). To access your data from outside of these networks, you must use a `VPN` connection. Instructions to connect to the university VPN can be found [here](vpn-connection).
 
+**Note**: While you can work on small file using `SAMBA`, the mass storage is optimised for long term storage of data and not for script development. So when possible, you should develop your scripts on your computer and save only the final version on the mass storage.
