Abstract: A digital image storage and management system for automatically generating distinct recorded media volumes by recording selected data thereon includes a combination of computer hardware and software components that are configured to operably receive and act upon user-defined commands delivered to the computer via a graphical user interface, which may be coupled to the computer through an external network. The hardware and software combination in the computer direct robotics to manipulate distinct recordable media volumes into and out from respective media recording drives. Data retrieved from local or distributed databases by the computer according to specific user-defined commands is compiled into discreet associated data sets and recorded onto one or more recordable media volumes. The computer also automatically creates a pre-defined association with the particular data set for cataloging purposes.
