Appendix A -Saving To Your Lab's Folder On Mcdb Dept Server - Zeiss LSM 510 User Manual

APPENDIX A – Saving to your lab's folder on Collie (MCDB Dept Server):
 Questions regarding MCDB Server should be directed to Erik Hedl.
1) Map the network drive. Right click on Computer icon on desktop or Computer in Start menu.
Click on "Map network drive..."
2) Drive letter should be Z: and the folder should be \\collie.int.colorado.edu\<your lab name>
(for example \\collie.int.colorado.edu\OlwinLab).
If your login for Collie is not your IdentiKey, check the box "connect using different
credentials."
3) Click finish.
4) If you selected "connect using different credentials," enter your username and password.
5) Click Ok and the drive should now appear. Copy over your files. If you have a lot of files, be
sure to allow time for the transfer. Under ideal conditions you will be able to copy close to 42
gigabytes per hour, don't count on ideal conditions. Also, it is safer to copy (not move) your
files, then delete after the copy has completed.
 You cannot, must not, should not reserve time on the microscopes in MCDB Cal to copy data –
reservations are for imaging only.
 The LMCF PCs are not long-term data storage places and we are not responsible for lost data.
 Do not forget to always safely store and backup your raw data – this represents the ground
truth of what you acquired that day and has all the associated metadata. Many journals are
now requiring that you submit raw data with your manuscript.
