Using the file sharing system built-in to your operating system is a fast and simple way to access your U-Storage account. However, this service is only available for computers located on the UCSB network.


File Sharing Setup

To connect your MacOS X system to U-Storage, you'll need to go to the Finder and follow the menu Go -> Connect to Server.... This will bring up the following window where you'll need to specify the server address.

Server address: smb://ustorage.ucsb.edu/[UCSBnetID]

Once you click Connect you'll be prompted for your UCSBnetID and password:

Fill these in and click OK. Your U-Storage account will then show up as a remote storage device on your desktop. You can use it just like you would any other MacOS volume.
