I was going through the project\CPDN folders in the BOINC folder, and noticed that I have ~600MB in two folders with the name of my previous WUs. Do they get deleted eventually, or was it an error them not getting deleted? Can I delete them?

I also still have the files from the hadsm 4.03. Can I delete it?

If you have the room to keep them you should. If your experiment was particularly interesting the project team might ask for the files, and you might become interested enough in climatology to look at them yourself. There is a revised version of the advanced visualisation program in preparation.

If you are short of HD space you could always burn to CD/DVD.

Thanks for the answers. I'll leave them there for now.

What I do is to move the completed experiments to a different partition (when they don't show up in the Work window).
I find it speeds up the calculations.
