Reminder: Updated Drive Letter Mappings

As mentioned in our August 30^th Tech Alert, OIRT has simplified file shares on Windows machines. Instead of using multiple drive letter mappings, all files are now consolidated under the H: drive. We ask that you please use the H: drive for all files stored on FDU network shares.

During this transition, files have been accessible through both the original drive letter as well as the new H: mapping. Please be aware that the old drive letters will be removed starting tomorrow and your data will be accessible through the H: drive only. As a result, you may notice that shortcuts to the old drive letters are missing and need to be recreated. Additionally, if you are unable to access a file through “Quick Access” in Microsoft Office applications such as Word or Excel, simply select “Open”, then “Browse”, and select your file from the H: drive. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you have any questions, please contact the University Technical Assistance Center at (973)-443-8822.
