Forcing content to a single vault increases performance by preventing content files from being stored in BLOBs, and also reduces the need for a proliferation of vaulting rules.

When you use file vaults, the database and file system backups are no longer synchronized. Vaulting is recommended only in situations where the storage is fault-tolerant, such if RAID or mirroring is used, to minimize the risk of data loss if a single drive fails.
