Yeah. It seems that Persistent Storage has been discontinued (e.g. [Spaces Persistent Storage Upgrade Not Accessible - #16 by michellehbn](/static-proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscuss.huggingface.co%2Ft%2Fspaces-persistent-storage-upgrade-not-accessible%2F171226%2F16)). I don’t know if the data inside can be recovered, but you’ll probably need to contact HF: [website@huggingface.co](mailto:website@huggingface.co)
