Drives Available from Multiple Platforms
(i.e., T: = /usr/shared)
There are a number of disk drives on the PSC system that are made available from both the desktop PC and UNIX.
Two drives that are set-up for every desktop system are the T: drive and the W: drive. The T: drive is the equivalent of the /usr/shared space from the UNIX environment. This larger space is intended for short-term storage (one week) of large files and making sharing of files across platforms extremely easy. The other drive that is accessible from both the PC and UNIX is the W: drive. This drive appears as /usr/work from the UNIX end. This area is marked as permanent work space that individuals can store command files, output, and such for longer term (limitations for individual space are set by the computing core).
Another area that can be mapped to the PC is the /usr/data area. This is where the data archive stores close to 90% of its holdings. For those interested in having this area accessible from their PC, see a computing support staff to help set-up a drive mapping
