| - | The SCS computer labs consist of standard Intel Pentium PC's that run a non-configurable Windows operating system. Non-configurable means that users cannot install any software on the computers using their accounts. All the software needed for the SCS courses is present on the systems. All lab users must create an SCS Windows Account using the [[http://www.scs.carleton.ca/nethelp/webacct/|online account creation system]]. | + | The SCS computer labs consist of standard PC's that run a non-configurable Windows operating system.

| - | Students have access to the Z-drive which is dedicated backed-up server space (hard disk quotas are in place). The Z-drive is accessible on all the SCS Vista lab systems and is a place where you can safely store your files. We recommend that users buy USB-drives (or pen-drives) and use it to store their personal data. USB-drives are fast, have large capacity (compared to the Z-drive), relatively in-expensive, and allow you to backup, carry and transfer your data to computers running virtually any operating system. If you require large 'fast' temporary space, while you are working in the labs, you can use the C:\temp directory. | + | Students have access to the Z-drive which is dedicated backed-up server space (hard disk quotas are in place).
