How does Medley decide where to store data?
Medley carefully saves data to improve performance and data availability. When you create a file, Medley will put one copy of the file on your PC and another copy on some other PC. When you next access the file, the access will be faster than a network disk drive because the data is stored on your PC. If your PC is unavailable for some reason, other users can still access the file on the Medley drive because Medley gets the file from the other PC. There are many other complex actions Medley performs behind the scenes to increase performance and data availability. For example, if a user often accesses a piece of data, Medley intelligently moves that data to the users PC. If a PC fails, Medley actively makes copies of the data the PC held and distributes it to other PCs to optimally protect your data.
