Is your dba a network engineer? Be careful here. Someone needs to sniff the network and provide evidence of being "too much work"
Also, what does that mean? Things are slow?
Doesn't...

I've been pretty lucky with very few disasters, and hopefully that will continue.

$50K is pretty good. How is this system used? Lots of transactions? More reads?
I'd go with RAID 10, try to separate out tempdb (if used) from other db and...

ODBC drivers will work. Get the latest MDAC from MS will work. You can also install the client tools from the SQL Server CD on W98.

There isn't an easy way to avoid the autoiuncrement fields. You'd need to script something for these.
To copy the database, a backup and restore is the easiest way.

Restart the server should bring it back down.

Sounds like you have some bug set. Perhaps SQL is setup for dynamic ports? Check the network setup. I restart SQL and have no issues on a number of servers.

Intersting, have to check on this. Will try to ping some MS contacts to see if we can get an explanation of the coding.

Personally I'd stick with a simple solution if I could.
backup/restore.
Script the deletion of all data.

Haven't used a NAS, though we have some on a SAN. Similar concept, slightly different architecture. The idea behind this is that the storage is consolidated and rarely, if ever,...

NO RAID 0. Not worth it on a production server. If one drive goes, your server is down. The tempdb should be on RAID 1 or 5 or 10, same...
