Overview
Information Services offers digital storage and collaborative space for personal data through Box@Richmond. Box is not designed to be a complete backup location for your computer's hard drive.
By default, your Box account has a 100 GB
quota. Please be aware of this limitation if uploading folders that may contain a lot of data or large files (i.e. Music, Pictures, etc.).
To save your local users folder on your computer to Box, follow the steps below:
Instructions
- Log in to your Box account by going to box.richmond.edu and logging in with your Richmond netID and password.
- Create a new folder in your box account called "Computer Backup"
- Open the Computer Backup folder and select Upload > Folder
- From here, you will be able to select the different folders that you want to upload to backup from your User folder. We recommended selecting these folders for Backup: Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Movies, Music, Pictures.
