+1 to AvePoint and RBS. We are rolling this out on a few customers at the moment primarily due to being able to store the documents outside of SQL onto cheaper storage for them.

Using the filestream provider is a bit more hands on to configure but not too bad (there are good blog posts around on it, Todd Klindt had a good one from memory), but that is free so worth looking at if you are on a tight budget.

Coming from enterprise DMS systems before working with SharePoint, I have long held the view that SQL was not the place for documents. SharePoint people often find the concept foreign but it's the prevailing wisdom in many other ECM systems out there. Nevertheless, I haven't taken the plunge yet but I have a client in mind as part of a soon to happen upgrade to 2010. Has it been solid? These days I am the kind of guy who like grandpa, laments increased complexity and yearns for the simplicity of the past. Has anybody had negative experiences?

Then your database will not be so big etc. Regards, Tom Bizannes SharePoint and SQL Specialist From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Uzma Naz Sent: Monday, 7 February 2011 10:38 PM To: [email protected] Subject: WSS 3.0 SQL Express 4GB limit Hi there, I was wondering.. is it possible to create a new content database to generate a further 4GB of space within a stand alone, WSS 3.0 environment with SQL Express installed?
