Palash will share Bard's internal documentation on using Bagger. It has step-by-step instructions with screenshots (Bard's documentation is here).
Question: does Bagger have a "drag and drop" feature or do you have to browse for files? Answer: you have to browse; no drag and drop.
Question: what is the make and model of Bard's Harry the Hard Drive? Answer (provided after the meeting): it's a Western Digital (WD) 16TB My Book Duo Desktop RAID External Hard Drive. There are other storage sizes available; See Amazon for sizes and pricing. Bard received this hard drive for free through a grant from the DPOE-N. This was one of a few that they offered/recommended. DPOE-N is no longer providing hardware grants.
If you are purchasing a hard drive, don't purchase more storage than you need to cover your current storage needs and growth for a few years. Hard drives should be replaced every 5-7 years.
Important note about Bagger: it assigns checksums to files even if they are bad/corrupted. It doesn't identify files or validate that they are well formed. That is something Southeastern can do with Archivematica.
If you are verifying large sets of files with Bagger, it can take some time.
Question about Vassar's bagging practices. Answer: Local copy is unbagged; Dropbox copy is bagged; Glacier copy is unbagged.
