hi, all

Sql data mirriring.

There is any sql server drives mirriring. means that not only hardware
redundency but the sql data redundancy. When users updating through front
end apps, it updates the both mirriring drives.
Is that true?
Thanks

There is mirroring at a disk level and then there is database mirroring
within SQL Server 2005. They are very different technologies.

When you implement mirroring (RAID technologies), the application simply
writes changes and the RAID controller handles the mirror operations on the
backend.

When you implement database mirroring, transactions are sent to the mirror
server as they are flushed from dirty buffers to the transaction log.

In either case, the mirroring operation is completely transparent to your
applications.

Which one tastes better an orange or a pear?

The technologies do completely different things and interact with the system
at completely different levels. There isn't any basis to compare them on.
