The Holland Computing Center (HCC) at the University of Nebraska (NU) has a long history of providing high-performance and high-throughput compute capabilities and the associated storage resources. A long-standing hurdle many NU researchers experience is the difference between their traditional work environments (i.e., desktop) and HCC computing environments, often incurring non-trivial data transferring across these environments. The Nebraska Research Data Storage (NRDStor) creates a cyberinfrastructure storage resource that unites the familiarity of a researcher’s desktop environment with HCC’s computing resources. NRDStor is accessible on HCC’s computing clusters, as well as mountable by researchers on their lab computers and laptops. Fast data transfers between research labs and NRDStor are enabled by leveraging recent upgrades to campus networking. Data stored on NRDStor may be shared (at the user’s discretion) via the Open Science Data Federation (OSDF). NRDStor is available to all HCC users, including the four primary NU campuses in Lincoln, Omaha, the Medical Center in Omaha, and Kearney. The science drivers of NRDStor span the diverse scientific communities that vary in practice from computational biology to wireless networking and encompass many domains in-between. By providing a united filesystem accessible to researchers on both their desktop environment and the clusters, NRDStor can lower a barrier of entry and create a more consistent research environment, lessening their time to science. Moreover, this effort can provide undergraduates with valuable professional development experience by incorporating them to assist HCC professionals in administrating the NRDStor resource and pursuing researcher needs.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

内布拉斯加州大学（NU）的荷兰计算中心（HCC）拥有悠久的历史，可提供高性能和高通量计算能力以及相关的存储资源。长期以来，许多NU研究人员经历的障碍是他们的传统工作环境（即桌面）和HCC计算环境之间的差异，通常会在这些环境中传输非平凡的数据。内布拉斯加州研究数据存储（NRDSTOR）创建了一个网络基础结构存储资源，该存储资源将研究人员桌面环境的熟悉度与HCC的计算资源相关。 NRDSTOR可以在HCC的计算簇中访问，并且在其实验室计算机和笔记本电脑上的研究人员可以访问。通过利用最近升级到校园网络来实现研究实验室和NRDSTOR之间的快速数据传输。可以通过开放科学数据联合（OSDF）共享存储在NRDSTOR上的数据。 NRDSTOR可供所有HCC用户使用，包括林肯，奥马哈，奥马哈医疗中心和Kearney的四个主要NU校园。 NRDSTOR的科学驱动因素跨越了从计算生物学到无线网络的不同科学社区，并且涵盖了介于两者之间的许多领域。通过为研究人员提供桌面环境和群集的联合文件系统，NRDSTOR可以降低进入障碍，并创造更一致的研究环境，从而减少他们进入科学的时间。此外，这项努力可以通过合并他们来帮助HCC专业人员来管理NRDSTOR资源并追求研究人员的需求，从而为大学生提供宝贵的专业发展经验。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的审查标准来通过评估来通过评估来提供支持的。
