At the Michigan State University Archives, we are wrestling with the question 
of where to store digital objects/AIPs: within our Fedora repository (managed), 
or externally.

What are the issues associated with each approach?

We have external storage available on an IX Systems storage device, and have 
been planning to use it for archival storage of AIPs with pointers in the 
Fedora repository; it would be synched to a second IX storage device that would 
function as our dark archive. We want to do our due diligence, however, to 
ensure that this is the right approach.

Thank you,
Lisa
