    set up workstation for 4TB of fastq.gz

    Hi all, i was asked to set up a bioinformatics computer at my workbench to handle 4TB of sequencing data. The budget would be about 7k dollar in purchasing items like CPU, RAM, storage. Does 16 cores @2.4GHz and 120 GB of RAM sounds possible for these ware? May i get some recommendation from you all? I am really new in this field and hope to get some guidance here...thank you

      What is the purpose of the computer besides storage? To perform bioinformatics analysis, I would want to have at least 10Tb hard disk, 64 CPUs and 120Gb of RAM.

          16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
          by SEQadmin2




          NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

          Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
          by SEQadmin2



          Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

          Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating          ...
