Economics Network Drives

Three network drives will be mapped when you log on to the ESERVICES domain from any computer on grounds including those in the Economics Computer Labs.

  • G: Drive - This limited shared space is used for collaboration and file sharing. Remove files when you no longer need to share them.
  • H: Drive - This limited private disk space is intended for the temporary storage of working files. Remove your files when you are no longer using them.

Send an e-mail to econ-lsp@virginia.edu if you do not see these network drives when you log on to a machine in the Economics Computer Lab.

Storage of Large Files

In addition to the network storage resources mentioned above, there are additional networked facilities provided by ITC for large storage needs. Become familiar with the Research Services provided by U.Va.
