The H:\drive is accessible as a mapped drive on a PC once you log into your computer and are attached to the CityTech Active Directory (AD). On Macs, the connection to the H:\Drive is achieved with an additional step.  Since Macs are not part of the College's AD structure, users must login to AD first and then connect to their H:\Drive.
