Network Drives

Anytime you are using a Virtual Desktop (VMWare) or a computer connect to the FAU network, you will have access to "Network locations" in file explorer/finder. The drives you will see are: 

  • H: J: K: Drives – These are for homework submissions.  DO NOT perform live work on files here.  When you are ready to submit work, copy your files to this folder.  Your instructor can see your files here.
    • Access to these drives is based on registering for certain classes. After registering for classes, drives  will be created.
  • Z: Drive – This is personal space provided by the College of Engineering and Computer Science. Only you can access these files.
  • M: Drive – This is personal space provided by FAU. There is only 500MB of storage, and only you can access these files.
