>>Also, must you retain the original or can you image (legally?)
personnel files and archive them accordingly?  If imaged, what is the
quality of the image?  Does anyone know the ratio of lost data when
personnel files are imaged?<<

We are imaging personnel files for active employees.  Quality of the
images is as good as you would get from a copier.  If you have lost data
when personnel files are imaging you are doing it wrong.

One consideration to keep in mind is that you may be retaining the
images for a very long time.  Migration and obsolescence are issues that
must be addressed.
