NT can store the SAM database on a variety of storage subsystems, including disks, tapes, and hard disks. Copying the SAM database onto a disk or tape requires initial user intervention—this practice isn't ordinarily part of NT's operation. During day-to-day operations, NT is likely to store the SAM database in two places on a hard disk: the %systemroot% repair directory and the %systemroot%system32\config directory. Although the \config directory contains a working version of the SAM database that the live OS uses, programs such as Windows Explorer can't directly access the database for copying while the system is running. This inaccessibility results from the fact that the Local Security Authority (LSA) system process (lsass.exe) has locked the file for exclusive use.
