If you take your navigation pane into folders view, there are 2 links at the
bottom of the folders. Clicking the link "data file management" will open a
dialog showing you where your data file is. You can also open the
containing folder right from there.

How would a hard copy (i.e., a printed copy) help you in the event of a
failure. You'd spend hours or days reentering all 2,500 contacts. Your
best bet is to make a copy of your PST and store it on an external
medium.
