Does sql view a folder path to data file the same as mount point path to data file

  • We have several of our database files located on mount points e.g. K:\split_data\cm_data\datafile01.ndf

    If we change our disk environment, removing mount points but have the exact same folder structure /path to the data files should we expect the database to come back online?

    if path is exactly the same like going from...

    K:\split_data\cm_data\datafile01.ndf

    to

    K:\split_data\cm_data\datafile01.ndf

    ...then the answer is yes.
