This page tells the Archive MDI where to place high-res assets as they are restored
from the archive device.

When you select “Enable Mirrored Destination…”, you can then enter the MDI and
location for the mirrored Profile or Open SAN system. This allows you to define both
Profiles or Open SANs as a single restore location. When this single location is
selected in the NewsBrowse application, clips are restored or deleted on both Profiles
or Open SANs simultaneously.
