Moving Orion Database - Multiple Files

I am trying to move our Orion database to a new, more powerful server. I have been following the instructions in the tutorial and the document but have run into an issue. When I look at the files that make up my database, I do not see just a single .mdf file, I see multiple files - see screenshot. So, when I use SQLManagement Studio to restore the DB is asks what to restore the files as, the default that is showing up is NetPerMon.mdf for all files. Obviously this doesn't work. Any ideas? Why would there be multiple files? Can I build them into one? Should I? Or just restore them as their original names?

Thanks in advance.

Oops. A few more minutes with the search feature and I found my answer. The extra DB files are related to NTA and the division of data into multiple files for increased performance. I will restore them with their original names.
