Hi John,

Content files that are uploaded or created in the Totara are by default held in the moodledata folder, however be warned that you can't easily find files in that folder as the underlying Moodle code does some 'magic' where it renames the file and puts it in a seemingly random folder (it's not random but it's as good as) and then finds the right file with a DB lookup when it needs it.

One thing you can do specifically with SCORM content is link to an external content server so you can set a URL to the imsmanifest.xml file.  There is a nice summary here  written by Dan Marsden who maintains the SCORM activity.
