File Storage, access and backup

Most staff using the University Standard Desktop will be automatically saving their files such as Word documents and Excel spreadsheets onto the file server UOFA which is mapped to the S:\ drive.  These files can be accessed if the network is up and the staff member is logged in. These files are backed up regularly but staff can only request that files be retrieved from backup if there has been a major problem. Individual files will not be retrieved from backup.

More detailed information about file storage is available on the Online Services web pages.

Information about file storage quotas is available on the Quotas and storage web pages.
