H: and N: Student Network Share Space

H:\\ Drive Network Share

Each iSchool student is allocated 5 GB (1000 MB) on the iSchool student server. Your storage space is known as the H: Drive (think H: for Home). Any folders in the H: drive are on the server and will roam with you when you use different computers in our labs and can be accessed from the My Computer window.

From home, you can use secure FTP to access this drive. (You also have access to the N:\\Temporary Folders.)
