 ## Snapshot Sync
 
-- **Tar archives**: Use a URL ending in `.tar.gz`, `.tar.lz4`, `.tar.zst`, etc. Extracted to `/data/chain-data/chains/<chain.chain_data.chain_id>/<db|paritydb>/` (and relay analogue).
+- **Tar archives**: Use a URL ending in `.tar.gz`, `.tar.lz4`, `.tar.zst`, etc. Extracted to `/data/chain-data/chains/<normalized_chain_id>/<db|paritydb>/` (normalized = Substrate dir name: hyphens in `chain_id` become underscores; relay analogue under relaychain-data).
 - **Polkadot-style** (rclone): Use base URL (e.g. `https://snapshots.polkadot.io/...`). `chain_id` must match the snapshot chain id. Base URLs without a version suffix auto-resolve the latest snapshot.
 - **Backend vs snapshot**: Official Polkadot snapshots use ParityDB — set `chain_data.database: paritydb` (and the same for relay) so files land under `paritydb/` where the node expects them. Default `rocksdb` uses the `db/` directory.
