If you are not currently saving your work or school files & data to Microsoft One Drive, OIT strongly recommends that you do so. Files stored on you computer's local hard drive (such as the C: drive), on flash drives, or on other external storage media are not backed up by OIT. As a result, there is no guarantee that data stored in these locations can be recovered in the event of hardware failure, loss, theft, or malware infection.
