A designated amount of free disk space is provided to the USF faculty staff and students on myUSF. You can store your files, access them from anywhere, share documents between courses, organizations, specific users, and even with individuals outside of USF. To begin using your Virtual Hard Drive, simply click on the Content Collection tab, and follow the instructions on how to set up your WebDAV* folder. Additional documentation and quick guides are available online at http://wiki.acomp.usf.edu/index.php/Content_Management
*WebDAV is an Internet standard used for sharing files via the Internet regardless of platform (Windows, Macintosh, Linux, Sun Solaris, and so forth). When put into use with the Blackboard Content System, WebDAV is a means for each user to access content from the Content Collection as if it were in any other network drive or folder.

We have directions on how to use the Content Collection area (or “virtual hard drive”) here
Some of the images are slightly different since the upgrade, and we’re updating the documentation now, but this should be a pretty good guide to get you on your way.
