Free External Hard Drives For Our First Year Students!

Free External Hard Drives! Yay! Image: Wikipedia

Many of our new freshmen students don't know that, as part of the Bucks Big Deal, they are entitled to a free 1TB USB 3.0 external hard drive. All our animation & VFX students get an automatic 5GB of storage on their local network here at the Uni, but this space tends to fill up fast, especially once you start rendering high resolution images and large movie files. With that in mind, a free external hard drive is a great way store everything you need for your three year journey at Bucks. And, with a whole terrabyte of storage, the chances are you will never run out.

The free hard drives form part of the Bucks Big Deal, which aims to make sure you don't get landed with a bunch of hidden extra costs during your time at Uni. We know that our students are on a budget, so we try to anticipate your expenses and make sure they are covered as far as possible.

The Big Deal - no nasty surprises, no extra expenses

To collect your free external hard drive you will need to go to Media Resources on the ground floor of the Gateway Building (opposite the TV studios), and present your Bucks ID card.
