Shared library
(buffer storage)
Each channel is connected to the shared library,
which is a group of SCSI storage disks used as
a central storage location for digital media.
Material recorded on a channelÕs buffer disks is
transferred to the shared library for long-term
storage, then transferred back to a buffer for
playback.

Redundant arrays
of independent
disks (RAID)
RAID storage provides built-in backup: 20% of
the drive storage contains data to restore lost
media. Each RAID unit contains multiple
drives that can be replaced without shutting
down the unit or losing data. RAID units use
either a differential SCSI or Fibre Channel
interface.
