It is important that we start moving to Google Drive. Over the last few weeks we have had issues with corrupt H drives and other issues that could easily be remedied if we used our Google Drives instead. You can find the benefits of using google drive over your H drive at the bottom of this page!
There are two ways to actually move things from your H drive to your google drive. I have made a video demonstration of each, but what's important to know is that it's just a click and drag and drop game. Select the item you want to be able to access on your H drive, and drag it over to the webpage showing google drive. You can do multiple items at once by holding down the shift key and select all of them.

The benefits of google drive:
1 – Google Drive lets you send large files to your colleagues, students and friends directly from your Gmail account.
2 – Google Drive allows you to access your files remotely. Indeed, Google Drive can be synchronized with your computer. With Drive, all your files become available on the web. You have a big presentation coming up? No need for a USB key!
3 – Google Drive has its own mobile application which gives you access to your files on your iPhone or smartphone, no matter where you are!
4 – Google Drive has an efficient built-in search engine which allows you to find content easily with a keyword search. You can also look for files by owner or by file type.
5 – Google Drive is equipped with an OCR (optical character recognition) function, which allows you to search for words or expressions in scanned documents. For example, finding someone's name in an old newspaper article that was scanned and saved on Google Drive is possible thanks to OCR technology!
6 – Google Drive allows users to open various types of files, like.ai (Adobe Illustrator) and even .psd (Photoshop) files.
7 – Google Drive for us has UNLIMITED space, and it's FREE.
8 – Google Drive lets you share photos and videos with your contacts. Like Google Docs, your files can be commented. A notification is automatically sent to you when a comment is posted in response to yours.
9 – Google Drive uses image recognition technology. This new technology, which is still being perfected, can actually recognize the content of your pictures! Type "Eiffel Tower" in Google Drive’s integrated search engine and find pictures of you in front of the Eiffel Tower.
Let me know if you have questions or would me to sit with you to transfer over your files.
