Tufts University provides network storage space to all faculty. Referred to as the P: drive, (your personal drive), it is also called your home share. No one except you may access this storage area and the data you place there. This is an excellent location for any documentation or images that needs to be edited or retrieved from multiple locations. Storing your data on your P: drive, instead of your hard drive, includes the following benefits:

• Nightly backup of all data located on the P: drive
  
  
• Your P: drive data is accessible from any active Internet connection via Tufts WebVPN
  
  
• You can restore lost data without calling technical support
  
  
• Privacy and security – only you can access your P: drive

Each faculty member is allotted 1 GB of space for their individual P: drive, but may request more space if needed. Contact your IT support provider, your FSP, or call the University IT Support Center at 617-627-3376 to place a request.
