eDisk (LPS)

Students do not have a dedicated computer so they do not have any local storage to use for storing files. Thus, a service is available to students called eDisk that provides them with basic file storage and retrieval while on the LPS network. Staff also have eDisk access. eDisk is a place where staff can drag and drop files and serves as an excellent place to back up files such as bookmarks and printer files that would be lost if the computer were re-imaged.
