Miscellaneous Bits & Pieces:
Disk defragmenters can make your system run faster by reorganizing your files according to usage statistics and by keeping files contiguous. Disk defragmentation programs search out the parts of files that are scattered around the hard drive and attempt to put the files into a contiguous block.
Performance Tip: "WHERE LastName LIKE 'Sm%'" is a fast query but "WHERE column LIKE '%Sm%' is a performance killer. Imagine searching in a phone book for anyone whose last name starts with 'Sm' - easy right? Now try to find anyone whose last name contains the two letters 'sm'. There's a huge difference in the number of pages required to satisfy the two queries
Security Tip: Protect your backups! Many DBAs often do not realize that anyone that can get to your SQL Server database backups can also restore those backups on their own SQL Server. One additional layer of file-based security that you can add in is to put a password on your backup file. This can only be done with Transact-SQL but it cannot be bypassed during the restore
