    The user data will be written to the Primary File Group, if there is an error while writing, Is this database will be available?

    Maybe. Depends what the error is. If it's severe enough that SQL marks the database suspect, then no.

    2. With Primary and a Secondary.

    If we write all the user data to secondary File Group, and if there is any error while writing the data, Is this database will be available?

    Maybe. Depends what the error is. If it's severe enough that SQL marks the database suspect, then no.

    File groups aren't a protection against losing the database to corruption
