Upgrade of S: Drive – 28th Feb 17:00 GMT

Information Services will be migrating the S: drive to a new location in order to improve the service. This change will utilise new IT infrastructure that will offer a faster, robust and more secure platform.
Access to the S: drive should be considered “at risk” from Friday 28th February 17:00 – Monday 2nd March 9:00 GMT. 
During the switch over all data on the S: drive will be secure.

For those users with managed desktops/laptops the new path to the S: drive will automatically be updated, however Recent Documents and Shortcuts to the old S: drive locations will no longer work and will need to be recreated.

For those on unmanaged machines you will need to remap the S: drive from the current location \\netapp04b\HWShare to \\HWSHARE\hwshare

Please contact ISHelp@hw.ac.uk if you have any questions
