Copying your Classes folder in My Documents and pasting it to your N:drive will back up all of your important work. You’ll want to do this on a daily or weekly basis. Also back up anytime you take your tablet to the repair center for technical issues.

Copying to your N:drive is a great way to back up your work, but remember files that are placed on your N:drive are only accessible on campus. You won’t be able to access them from home.

LMS provides a way to upload files to your homepage, which backs them up and allows you to access them from anywhere with Internet access.
