Analyzing I/O Characteristics and Sizing Storage Systems for SQL Server Database Applications
Understanding how to analyze the characteristics of I/O patterns in the Microsoft® SQL Server® data management software and how they relate to a physical storage configuration is useful in determining deployment requirements for any given workload.
