Mapped Network Drives

Mapped Network Drives are Shared Folders on a server that allows users to share data, such as files, documents, videos and more, with other users on the network. Each user will have three drives mapped by default, namely Home Drive (H:), Shared Drive (Z:), and Scans (S:). An explanation of each and their use case will be provided below.
