+Users may have a `/staging` directory, meant for staging large files and data intended for
+job submission. See our [Managing Large Data in HTC Jobs](file-avail-largedata) guide for
+more information.
+
+To check your `/staging` quota, use the command `get_quotas /staging/username`.
+
+```
+[alice@submit]$ get_quotas /staging/alice

+Your `/staging` directory has a disk and item quota. In the example above, the disk quota is
+20 GB, and the items quota is 5 items. The current usage is printed in the following columns;

-You can use the command `get_quotas` to see what disk 
-and items quotas are currently set for a given directory path. 
-This command will also let you see how much disk is in use and how many 
-items are present in a directory:
-
-```
-[username@transfer ~]$ get_quotas /staging/username
-```
-{:.term}
-
-Alternatively, the `ncdu` command can also be used to see how many 
-files and directories are contained in a given path:
-
-``` 
-[username@transfer ~]$ ncdu /staging/username
-```
-{:.term}
-
-When `ncdu` has finished running, the output will give you a total file
-count and allow you to navigate between subdirectories for even more
