Saving les and using local drives
Thin clients use an embedded operating system with a xed amount of disk space. Dell recommends you to save les that you want to keep
on a server rather than on a thin client.
CAUTION
: Be careful of application settings that write to the drive C, which resides in disk space. By default, these applications
write cache les to the drive C on the local system. If you must write to a local drive, change the application settings to use the
drive Z. The default conguration settings that are mentioned in Managing Users and Groups with User Accounts minimize
writing to the drive C for factory-installed applications.
drive Z
Drive Z is the on-board volatile memory (Dell Wyse RAM Disk) of the thin client. It is recommended that you do not use this drive to save
data that you want to retain.
For information about using the Z drive with roaming proles, see Participating in Domains.
drive C
Drive C is the on-board non-volatile ash memory. Dell recommends that you avoid writing to drive C. Writing to drive C reduces the free
disk space. If the free disk space on drive C is reduced under 500 MB, the thin client becomes unstable.
NOTE
: Dell recommends that 500 MB of disk space is left unused. If the free disk space is reduced to 500 MB, the thin client
image is irreparably damaged and it is necessary for you to contact an authorized service center to repair the thin client.
Enabling the Unied Write Filter protects the disk from damage and presents an error message if the cache is overwritten. However, if this
message occurs you are unable to ush les of the Unied Write Filter cache and any thin client conguration changes still in cache is lost.
Items that are written to the Unied Write Filter cache or directly to the disk if the Unied Write Filter is disabled during normal operations
include:
• Favorites
• Created connections
• Delete/edit connections
