== Configuring Snapshot Directory
18

19
By default, a segment of the snapshot is stored in the work directory of a respective Ignite node. This segment uses the
20
same storage media where Ignite Persistence keeps data, index, WAL, and other files. Since the snapshot can consume as much space as
21
already taken by the persistence files and can affect your applications' performance by sharing the disk I/O with the
22
Ignite Persistence routines, it's suggested to store the snapshot and persistence files on different media.

24
You can avoid this interference between Ignite Native persistence and snapshotting
25
by either changing link:persistence/native-persistence#configuring-persistent-storage-directory[storage directories of the persistence files]
26
or overriding the default snapshots' location as shown below:
