While we have no problem, and even encourage hosting your final year projects on Matrix, we would like all members who do to make regular backups. We do not backup home directories and, while it is very unlikely, Matrix's hard disks or disk controllers may fail. Please make external backups as often as possible. All it takes is a couple of commands - our support desk is more than willing to provide assistance.
