# Data on storage filesystem disappeared overnight

## post by skdrx on Dec 4, 2024

I made a filesystem in the washington-DC region for use when I am running a GH200 instance.

This filesystem contained trained models as well as datasets. Yesterday it was working fine, but after I turned off my instance for the night and started a new one this morning the directory was empty.

Unfortunately I don’t have any screenshots to prove that I had data on that filesystem, but I do have a screenshot of the filesystems tab on the Lambda Cloud dashboard which shows there is a significant amount of data used by the storage instance:

Is this related to the ongoing outage? Is there anyway I can get my data back?

Thank you!
