Note
CTS strongly recommends that you save your work to a USB drive or cloud storage service, such as Box or Microsoft OneDrive. You will be permitted to save files to the hard drive; however, files are removed from these drives on a regular basis.
Do not use lab computer hard drives as a personal storage space. Once files are removed from a lab computer's hard drive, they cannot be recovered. Practice safe computing and keep multiple copies on transportable media.
