Changing the default SQL 2005 data directory

Author andy18    Category SQL-related     Tags

Default installation of SQL 2005 has the data directory set at C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data. However, if you are looking to setup another RAID volume that separate the database(s) data directory from the default, you may do this by firing up the SQL Server
Management Studio > Right-click the server in the object explorer and select Properties > Database Settings. Change the Data and Log directory to the disk drive that you wish to or any other folders.
