We just moved one of our heavist databases 7 gig not great in size to a RAID 1 and the disk load still hits 100 during some heavy use.Is this something to do with the disk itself not properly configured with spindles or luns ? Not up to date on this just take the Drives for SQL when assigned them.Thanks |

Disk time or queue length? Raid 1 doesn't mean better performance by default. |

If the db is really heavily used, you should add more data files in it and put them on seperate disk arrays. |
