Due to the insufficient storage space of CryoSPARC for processing data, I need to export all the original data, intermediate steps and result data that have been processed previously to a portable hard drive. How should I proceed to ensure that all data is securely transferred and can be re-accessed in cryoSPARC? Do I need to revert to the original location when viewing?
Thanks for your kind help!

Detach the project, tar the project directory, copy the archive to the new location, extract, reattach. Confirm everything is there, delete the original.
Not failed for me yet.
Just be sure to give CryoSPARC time to make sure it’s fully detached, and quite a lot of time to reattach - reattaching seems to take longer than I expect for everything to be populated again!
Thank you for your answer. I will try it!
It is okay to attach the CryoSPARC project directory at a different path from the path where it was stored before detachment (guide).
Symbolic links inside the project directory to imported data (movies, imported particle stacks, etc.) may need to be adjusted if those imported data, which are stored outside the CryoSPARC project directory, are restored to a different path than before.
Thank you for your reply. I have some questions:
Thanks!
