| I've read everywhere that to improve database performance I should move my log file to a different physical device on my server.I was wondering if it is better to move the data file .mdf to a drive that is only used for minor storage, ie less busy device or move the log to the less busy device. |

| Probably the data as reads won't affect the log (much).The difference is that the data will be mainly random access and the log sequential.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |
