Temp DB Best Practices

  • Hi,

    We are building a new server planning migration from sql 2005 to sql 2008 on windows 2008 server.

    we have an 16 processor,64 GB RAM,.Each Database has seperate SAN of 2tb

    We are planning to set up the TEMP DB on a seperate disk which is of 300GB and RAID 10 .

    As a best practice we are planning to stripe the Data file to 16 files i,e one .mdf and 15 ndf's.

    our largest database is around 1TB at present (Data coming in).With huge transaction processing and Batch processes going on.

    we are struck up with Defining the optimum sizes for the LOG and Data Files.

    Are there any particular statistics to set the Data and log file sizes.Like Log file should be 1/2 the size of Data file.

    Tried searching online lot of articles but cannot find any particular statistics.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks in Advance!!!
