Transferring Files
Moving files from your computer to the Lasers computer
There are two ways to do this:
- Use a USB drive
- Use the schools Laser cloud drive.
Everyone at SEA should have access to the ‘SEA Laser Drive‘ (see image below). This allows you to easily transfer files to the cloud and access them on the Laser cutters desktop computer. Simply create your own folder and put your cut files inside. Keep in mind that this folder will be accessible to everyone at SEA. So do not put anything inside that you want to remain private. When you are finished cutting you can delete the files if you wish.
NOTE: The laser cutters computer has its own Google Drive Account, DO NOT use your login on this machine.
