\nThis week's survey is a little more complicated. I'm interested in the physical layout of your databases. I've got four surveys, for a variety of database sizes. Please vote multiple times in each survey, as you see fit – and by all means forward this link to your friends\/clients\/etc or re-blog\/tweet it. I'm going to report on this survey in two weeks, to give a bit more time for people to respond (and because we're travelling next week). I think we're going to see some interesting statistics come out of this – the more people that respond the better. I'll report on it 4\/24\/09.<\/font>\n<\/p>\n

\nOne thing to note – this is just for user<\/u><\/em><\/strong> databases, not for tempdb. In the surveys, "multiple filegroups" implies multiple files too, and if you don't have them spread exactly one per drive\/etc, just choose that option – I only have 10 options to choose from in the free surveys.<\/font> \n<\/p>\n
