The Web Disk feature is cPanel’s implementation of the Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) protocol.

The Web Disk feature allows you to handle the files on your website just like if they were locally stored on your PC. For instance, you can utilize Windows Explorer’s Web Disk capability to deal with the data from your remote website if your computer runs Microsoft Windows. You can work with your files in the Finder and other places if your machine is running Mac OS X.
