Online Data Server
We have built a RAID system at UCLA that holds all the available EFI, MFE, and PWI data files. This RAID system is web accessible, and the metadata associated with EMWRAP data can point to the web addresses of the data files on this server.
A duplicate copy of all data files is stored at separate hard drives for redundancy.
