How Do I Get More Space?

I'm close to using up my disk quota. How can I get more storage space? By default, students have approximately 100MB of useable storage space on their H: Drive. This quota may be increased for specific classes at the request of the instructor, but students may request additional space individually if they require it.

If you get close to your quota, you will be notified on login by a message box saying you have a certain amount of space left. One way to make space in your H: drive would be to copy homework files or completed projects you no longer need to a USB drive or to a CD, and then delete the files from the system. If you don't make more room in your account, your account can become corrupted, and your account may lose functionality.

Tips for conserving your personal space are provided in the Managing Your Resources print guide or visit GCC Online Tutorials  (Managing Your Resources).

Finally, if you still need more space or have any questions, feel free to stop by HelpDesk in High Tech Center 1 (West entrance) during open hours for assistance.
