Data associated with any data node can be downloaded by clicking the node and choosing Download data (Figure 8). Compressed files will be downloaded to the local computer where the user is accessing the Partek Flow server. Note that bigger files (such as unaligned reads) would take longer to download. For guidance, a file size estimate is provided for each data node. Downloaded files can be seamlessly imported in Partek® Partek® Genomics Suite®Suite®.
