I dont want to move the system databases. can i just change the path of the data files and log files of the system databases like into d drive or e drive?<br />
<br />
From the link you gave, is it enough to use this<br />
ALTER DATABASE model MODIFY FILE ( NAME = model , FILENAME = 'd:\data\model.mdf' )<br />
<br />
can you please explain?
