Disk space Issues

Good day,
I installed sql server 2000 on a 10Gig disk. Now i have a fast growing
database. Is there a way to chanel the incoming data to an already installed
40Gig disk on thesame system?

Michael AligbeYou could back up your database, drop it, and then restore it with the "WITH
MOVE" option. This would allow you to place your ldf and/or mdf files on a
different drive.
The other option would be to add filegroups to your database and move some
of your data to those new filegroups. This might be a little more involved
than option one however.

copy the mdf file to the other hard drive, the
sp_attach_db dbname, mdffilename, logfilename
This would be quicker than backing up and restoring
