Hi,

I have two servers where I installed SQL Server 2008

Production: RAID 1 on SCSI disks
Test: IDE disk

When I try to execute a script with about 35.000 inserts, on the test server I need 30 sec and instead on the production server more than 2 min! Does anybody know why such difference? I mean, the DB is configured in the same way and the production server has also a RAID config, a better processor and memory...

THANKS!
