Storage and Hard Drives
The Media Center may provide students with hard drives for external editing of projects after a consultation, but we recommend students bring a personal external hard drive for editing and duplicating any media-based projects in the lab. Hard drives will need to be formatted as Mac Os Journaled or ExFat. Windows NTFS hard drives cannot be used in the Digital Media Lab.
