Access Your Network Drive (H: drive)

When a computer user account is created, a network drive (represented as H:) is also created for you to store your files on. This allows you to access your files from any computer on campus. To access your H: drive, log onto a computer using your username and password. In My Computer, you will see a drive labeled as H: with your username located next to it. This is the format you will see it in: ed.doe on ‘appserv/home’ (H:). You can see this in the example below.

 

• The H: drive is very useful when you don’t have a removable storage media available (floppy, USB drive, or CD) and can even be used to backup important data.

• The H: drive is utilized by faculty, staff and student, so be sure to delete old files you do not need from your H: drive to free up space.

• Although the drive is shared, you can only see your files.

• If you do not see the H: drive under My Computer, stop by the IT Department and we will set it up for you.
