Oh wait. At least check out the GPU. To do this, let's start a Terminal.

I personally prefer using gpustat to check out the GPUs. Type in pip install gpustat --user to install it and run gpustat.

It's a Tesla K80.

One more thing

Should I worry about losing all my uploaded files when the instance time is up?

By far I've tried two 1hr instances and found they share the storage, so most probably you can still access your data until your whole 50hr is used up. However, it's good practice to backup your data.
