Hi SQL,

We'll be upgrading from 2000 to SQL 2005 (in place) in a couple weeks and I have two questions.

1) We have ~240 db's totalling 530 GB of data, Any idea what kind of timeline we'll be looking at once the upgrade begins? Is there a rough GB/Min upgrade rate?

2) Second question, I figure updating the statistics after the upgrade completes could be quite lenghty, again any idea on whether we could be looking at 1 hour 10 hours?

Thanks,

Sp
