# Where do files I park in a cloud account end up?

In a folder named after your Mac inside that account. The first time you open a cloud account as the destination in **Data Parking**, Storage Studio creates that folder and lands you in it, so each Mac's files stay separate.

You can see them:

- in Data Parking's right-hand pane,
- in Finder, inside the **Storage Studio** location in the sidebar, under the account's folder, and
- in the provider's own website or app.

Unlike moves to your external drive, nothing is left behind on your Mac for cloud moves — there's no shortcut, because shortcuts aren't a cloud concept.

See [the Data Parking window](https://storagestudio.us/manual/tier).
