Hello,

Guido kindly provided me with a storage node for my testing.
One interesting point is that I started with a 1-out-of-2 scheme (the
other storage node was local on my computer) and that Guido's storage
node was unavailable.
So when I copied a file on the "grid", it was pretty quick.

So that leads to one interesting question. Next time I will connect
with Guido's node available, will it upload the files I have uploaded
on my local storage node ?

If that is the case, I can have quick read/write on the local node ? ;-)

Thanks,
