 # Project Storage, Group Ownership, and BeeGFS Quotas
 
-CARC Scratch project directories are located under paths like:
+CARC Scratch project directories are located under `/carc/scratch/projects/`, but the exact layout depends on how your project was provisioned. Most projects live directly there:

+```text

+Some PIs, typically ones with multiple projects, instead have a container directory holding one or more project subdirectories:
 
 ```text
 /carc/scratch/projects/<pi_username>/<pi_username><project_id>
 ```
 
+If you're not sure which applies to you, check both:

+```bash
+ls -d /carc/scratch/projects/<pi_username>*

 These directories are on BeeGFS, where quotas are enforced by **group ownership**.
 
 This can be confusing because a file can be physically located inside a project directory but still be charged against a user's personal quota if the file is owned by the wrong group.
