Hello Runpod team,
I have registered on Runpod platform and was very excited to speed up my project with better hardware. But the experience has been very disappointing. I have deployed a ComfyUI pod, the machine itself had problem( RTX 4090), and after waiting for 2 days I had to terminate the pod. this is after I finished the configuration.
I have reconfigured another Pod( RTX 4090), now i dont know when GPUs will be available. This is shown as High Availability instance . I feel I am stuck here. can someone guide me how can I get GPUs allocated, instead of not knowing when it will be available. Also do let me know if there any best practices for a short term project.

use a network storage
save your files in /workspace
you can just terminate them after using, then whenever you wanna reuse it just deploy a pod with network storage attached, then your files will be in /workspace
(check storage page in the runpod website menu)
Create a network volume | RunPod Documentation
Create a network volume in Secure Cloud to access high-performance storage and flexibility for multiple pods, with options for data center selection, naming, and size allocation, and enjoy cost-effective storage solutions with robust infrastructure and NVME SSDs.
Storage types | RunPod Documentation
The following section describes the different types of storage and volume options.
thanks, I have been saving the files in workspace and terminating the pod, when not in use. issue is when I wish to switch the pod on, the pod is not available hours together. any suggestions here
