Hello

Here's a simple one:

Where does Sharepoint store the files you upload?
Are they automatically stored on the same drive that SPS is eg services
C;\ ?

Any info would be appreicated.

They are written to rows in the Docs table of the Content DB that the site
is in.

They are not stored within the physical folder structure on the server but
rather they are stored in the database as BLOBs

Hiya

Thanks for your replies, but now I am confused. FIrst I throght it was
just lack of knowing where things where, now, I'm more confused :-)

So if they are not physically stored, where does SP get the files from
for downloading? Lets say I've uploaded a document for other team
members. They visit the site and are able to view or download it. It
must be stored somewhere surely?

Many thanks,
dim wit

It is stored in the content database in SQL Server.

Hope this helps.

Thanks
