The "magic" of MSSQL server ensures that @@IDENTITY will always work
the way it's "supposed" to.  That's to say that as long as your
SELECT @@IDENTITY is submitted to the database on the same connection
as you INSERT & is sent immediately after the INSERT, then you'll get
the right identity value back.

MS made sure that @@IDENTITY is maintain per table & per connection. 
You should be safe using it regardless of how much traffic your site
has, and it will NOT lock inserts to other tables.

Best regards,
Zac Bedell
