Saving your work

Saving your work safely on campus is one of the most important aspects of using any computer. 


Saving your work safely is one of the most important aspects of using any computer. It is recommended to save your work in your allocated space on the university network. The Student Network Storage can be accessed through the 'Start menu' on all PCs (Windows) or through the 'Network Home Login' link on all University Macs (accessed through the cat icon on the desktop).


It is highly recommended you make backups of your work in different places in case of system outage, device failure or file corruption. For example, save multiple versions of the document so if all else fails, at least you can fall back on a piece of work completed a version before. It is also recommended that you save multiple copies of your work in different locations. This can be onto a USB or cloud storage or both! 

Work saved in your allocated space on the university network cannot be accessed off-campus. If you need to access your work off-campus consider using cloud storage as well.
