Good Saving Practices
esse quam videri
When working in any of the Interactive Arts and Media department facilities, it is crucial to exercise good saving practices.
The table of good saving practices
C:\User | Z:\ | |
---|---|---|
Is it fast? | Oh yes, working locally is plenty fast. | No, working from your server space is woefully slow |
Is it safe? | No. Any folder in the user folder can be accessed by anyone using that computer. Do not leave sensitive files in the User folder! | Yes. You and only you (and faculty) have access to files in your Z: drive. |
Is there lots of space? | Yes. The only limiting factor is the space available on that computer's hard drive. | No. You only have 2 gb available in your Z drive. Once you meet that 2 gb quota you will be unable to add any additional files to your Z: drive |
