Background information Shared drive enhances sharing of data in a networked environment. Users are divided into user groups so that privileges can be effected and managed easily For security purposes, users can access specific data depending on their user group. Conventional storage mechanisms don’t offer this flexibility. This is an Information Technology Supported, which has been authorized and one that is managed to give space for storage space electronically for the users that has been authorized for some given network. In some cases the drive is given the name as the J: Drive (Phillips & Skagerberg, 2003). The use of the share drive is necessary because it enables information to be store in one place and the users from same department can share it increasing efficiency in an organisation. 2 OBJECTIVES To carry out research on how old methods of sharing data was done. To investigate the drawbacks of the old methods of storing data. To carry out research on how shared drive is implemented. To show the advantages of using shared drive technology in an organization. To carry out research on how old method of sharing files was done. To investigate the drawbacks of the old method of storing files. To carry out research on how shared drive is implemented. To recommend use of shared drive in an organization. 3 REQUIREMENTS The shared drive should conform to Professional and Ethical standards. Enough funds to facilitate the whole project. Hardware requirements(computers, servers , internetworking tools) Software requirements(Windows server2012 R2) Contribute to society and human well-being. Does your application infringe on any fundamental human rights? Avoid harm to others. Be honest and trustworthy. 4 ADVANTAGES OF IDRIVE It enables various users in an organization to share information and data Facilitates easier retrieval of data. This enhances performance and productivity. Enhances data security by implementing user groups and privileges Eliminates unnecessary duplication of data(Besanko, 2010). This makes it easier when it comes to sorting out of the files and hence makes it easier to retrieve it. It enables the various members of a given staff who are working in some work areas to have knowledge of the exact place from which they have the ability of accessing enjoy form of information that they want. It enables folders to be kept in a hierarchy that can be controlled hence enabling the electronic folders and the tittles of the documents which have been stored hence easing the situation in which some given form of information is required to be retrieved from the system. The third advantage is that the electronic information which rel.
