Through the efforts of various members of ITECS, the College of Engineering has purchased a campus license to ExpanDrive, which is now available to NCSU faculty, staff, and students on the Eos download site at http://download.eos.ncsu.edu/.
ExpanDrive runs on Windows XP, Vista or Mac OS X 10.4.1 or higher. The application allows the secure mapping or creation of local drives that connect via SFTP to AFS file space. This action allows for the direct opening, editing, and saving of files in AFS space from an individual's personal computer much like they are accustomed to in labs and on office computers. Full setup and installation instructions are available on the download site at http://download.eos.ncsu.edu/.
