Quick Reference Guide

If you modify the EWF using the command line, you must right-click
the icon (you can then click anywhere on the screen to close the
context menu) to refresh the status icon display. The status icon
display is refreshed automatically when you make modifications
through the EWF Control Panel applet. The EWF applet always
reflects the current status.

Local drives

The following sections describe the local drives located on the thin
client.

Drive Z

Drive Z is the onboard volatile memory (Ms-ramdrive) on the logic
board of the thin client. Because drive Z is volatile memory, HP
recommends that you do not use this drive to save data that you want
to retain. For Ramdisk configuration instructions, see

“HP

RAMDisk” on page 11

. For information about using the Z drive for

roaming profiles, see

“Roaming profiles” on page 31

.

Drive C and Flash

Drive C is in the onboard non-volatile flash memory. HP recommends
that you do not write to drive C, as writing to drive C reduces the free
space on the flash.

Ä

CAUTION: If the available free space on the flash memory is reduced to

below 3 MB, the thin client becomes unstable.

The Enhanced Write Filter (if enabled) protects the flash from
damage and presents an error message if the cache is overwritten.
Items that are written to the write filter cache (or directly to the flash,
if the write filter is disabled) during normal operation include
Favorites, created connections, and deleted or edited connections.
