How do I access my H/S/J drives from off campus using a personal Windows computer?

Effective February 2025, H: drives will no longer be provisioned for new staff and faculty. New staff and faculty have access to Google Drive for cloud-based storage.

NOTE:  Faculty and Staff: No level 1-3 data can be stored on personal computers; see the Guideline for Data Handling. If you have questions about the data levels, please contact your Data Security Officer, Information Security Liaison, or the Information Security Compliance Office. Mobile devices used to access university information resources are at increased risk of data exposure due to loss, theft or compromise.  To mitigate this risk, additional safeguards must be used. See the Guideline for Mobile Devices for more details.
