[QUOTE="snoslicer8, post: 574694, member: 19029"] This is an interesting question, and I honestly don't know if iDisk allows multiple computers to simultaneously access it. What about setting up a networked external HD that all of the students can save their files on and taking it home with you in your briefcase/backpack/napsack? Might save you a little bit of a headache, and external drives don't require any usernames/passwords unless you tell them to do so. You could attach the USB drive to your Mac at the front of the class and allow it for sharing on the network. Your students then click 'Go' in the finder menubar and select the name of the disk, and it appears on their desktop to read from and write to. I think BestBuy has some very small (i.e. deck-of-card-sized) drives with around 120 GB storage for under $100. [/QUOTE]
