Students
Students have access to 1 GB of free, web-accessible storage space via My WebSpace for securely sharing files.
Faculty and Staff
Faculty and staff will have access to 10 GB of free storage through MyDrive to store and back-up important files. Additional storage is available by request for $1 per GB per year. MyDrive is for individual use only and does not allow sharing.
Users can store a copy of work files or use it as a place to back up your computer files. Please note, if you delete a file off of MyDrive, there is no way to recover it at this time.
An additional 1 GB of free web storage is available to faculty and staff who need to share documents through My WebSpace.
Departments, Groups & Service Teams
Departments, groups and service teams on campus should select the storage option(s) that best fits their speed and performance needs.
SharedDrive offers departmental file and print sharing to campus through a Windows File Share.
Enterprise Storage offers storage solutions to departments, service teams or researchers who already have a server in place.
The cost for SharedDrive and Enterprise Storage is based on the amount of storage and performance needed.
