To run the project we are using two key pieces of technology. The first, is [[https://nanoporetech.com/products/minion|MinION sequencer]], from Oxford Nanopore Technology. The pictures below show one of the three devices we are using in our labs. | To run the project we are using two key pieces of technology.

* [[https://tinyurl.com/y42xrka6|WD 4TB Elements USB External Hard Drive]] – this is external storage to keep data (we recommend that you pick tested hard drive). Overall, a standard spinning hard drive is not optimal (it draws too much energy). When we do not need that much extra storage we use smaller SSDs. | * [[https://tinyurl.com/y42xrka6|WD 4TB Elements USB External Hard Drive]] – this is external storage to keep data (we recommend that you pick tested hard drive).
