`I:\` Shared Folder¶

The I:\ drive serves as a large, shared storage space accessible to everyone in the lab when connected to the CRCHUM network.

If you cannot see or access the I:\ drive, please contact Dr. Obaid or Guillaume Theaud to request access.

📂 Folder Breakdown¶

Below is a breakdown of the important folders on this drive:

Path	Description	Notes
`I:\Chercheurs\Obaid_Sami`	Dr. Obaid’s main shared folder.
`I:\Chercheurs\Obaid_Sami\Datasets`	Contains all shared datasets used in the lab.	Important: This is a read-only library. To use a dataset, copy it to your personal project folder. Do not edit or move the original files.

👩‍🎓 Student Folders¶

Each student must create a folder named after their first name in I:\Chercheurs\Obaid_Sami\Projets_Inter_Equipe. To avoid overloading the I:\ shared folder, everyone is encouraged to keep their folder organized and free of unnecessary files.
