What Are Sizes of the /cache Directories for Different Notebook Specifications in DevEnviron?

When creating a notebook instance, you can select resources based on the data volume.

ModelArts mounts disks to /cache. You can use this directory to store temporary files. The /cache directory shares resources with the code directory. The directory size varies depending on resource specifications.

No disks can be mounted to /cache for CPUs. When only one GPU or Ascend card is used, the /cache directory size is limited to 500 GB. If multiple GPUs or Ascend cards are used, the /cache directory size is limited to 3 TB and calculated using the following formula: /cache directory size = Number of cards x 500 GB. For details, see Table 1.
