Me neither. I've had database 50-70G in size on NT. (Which, in the grand
scale of things isn't terribly large, but it's my personal experience
and sufficient for this example). Compaq ProLiant servers, Compaq RAID
controllers and storage arrays. Very nice equipment, rock solid and very
fast. So long as you stick to the OEM'd drivers, you won't go wrong. I
am a huge fan of Compaq servers, they must have learnt a great deal
about system engineering from their acquisition of DEC.

Nothing personal to anyone reading this, but there are a whole bunch of
people on this list who have very strong anti-NT sentiments, which
aren't always justified, IMHO. YMMV. <rant>Don't even get me started on
Unix, which sucks. Rebooting if you need more file descriptors?! Or
shared memory? All operating systems suck. Apart from maybe VMS.</rant>

Hi,

Regarding the issue of databases larger than 1GB on NT, could someone
please
explain this to me, as I was not aware of this 'saying'.

Thanks in advance,

Steven H.
