Can you share why you want to have the same SDK for 10 pc? The benefit I can get is to reduce the total download time.

If I get ur question, you can have several options:

  1. Compress the existing sdk folder, and use USB/LAN to share the compressed file (ex. andorid_sdk.zip), and decompress it to the path you want. you can have ur own path convention to make 10 PCs follow. And don't forget to set Android Studio SDK path well.

  2. Create a network shared folder and mount it on the same path for 10pcs, and they can have the really same one SDK sharing. Though I didnt try it and I don't recommend it cause maybe someone mess up the sdk, and all suffers.

If you want to configure SDK in this way cause of development courses. I think you should let them to download sdk separately in 10 PCs and do those steps by themselves. That way they can learn how to setup development environment.

Btw, Android Studio will provide better SDK integration in the future Stable release (From 2015 Gooogle IO Conference).

Hope these infos can help you.
