CPU Droplet Setup and Data Migration Guide | Generated by AI

No — the snapshot requires 720 GB minimum disk, but the biggest CPU droplet only has 240 GB disk. The portal won’t allow it.

Look for a "Create Droplet" option that doesn't require a snapshot — a fresh Ubuntu image. In the AMD Dev Cloud portal, there should be an option to create a basic/standard droplet (not from snapshot) in atl1. Something like:

- Image: Ubuntu 24.04 (not from snapshot)
- Plan: Basic / Regular CPU
- Region: atl1

If the portal only offers GPU droplet options in atl1, then this partner account truly can't create CPU droplets in atl1 at all. In that case:

1. Create CPU droplet in nyc1 ($6/mo)
2. Create a new volume in nyc1 ($10/mo)
3. Do data prep there
4. When ready: move data to a new atl1 volume, recreate GPU droplet in atl1

Want me to set up the nyc1 path instead?
