For Windows Users (Off-Campus)

What are the "H" and "I" Drives?

"H" Drive - For students, faculty, and staff

• Use this web space to store Microsoft Office files (Word, Excel, Powerpoint) instead of using diskettes. You can access these files from any PC on campus--in a computer lab, classroom console, or personal workstation
• Install Eudora Light on your "H" drive (see "how to download & set up Eudora" information sheet), and you can access your e-mail while on campus.

"I" Drive - For faculty and students

• Professors and students can exchange class-related work over the "I" drive

Types of Access

Two types of access are possible:  "Read" and "Write."

• For "Read" access, you need Explorer 5.0 or higher.
• For "Write" access, you must have "write permission" and your Explorer must  have Web-folder capabilities.

Note to Microsoft XP Users: Before entering your username, you must type "srunet/" (without the quotation marks). A new window should open or appear in your start bar. You are now in the H: (or I:, depending on which you selected). You can save your files to this window. To Save Files: If you have "write" permission and want to save a file to the H:, I: or W: Drive, check the "Open as Web Folder." If you want to save your file to the H: or I: Drive and your browser does not support web folders, call us at 724.738.4357 for advice on an alternative method (FTP). If you want to save a file to the web folders, either click and drag the file into your I: Drive folder or copy and paste. EXAMPLE:
