How do I find the location of a database?

  1. Where is SQL database located?
  2. How do I find my database server?
You have two native options for finding out where the SQL server stores its database files: either right-click on the instance name in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) and navigate to the 'Database Settings' tab, or use a T-SQL query.


Where is SQL database located?

SQL Server databases are stored in the file system in files. Files can be grouped into filegroups. For more information about files and filegroups, see Database Files and Filegroups. When people gain access to an instance of SQL Server they are identified as a login.

How do I find my database server?

In Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, in the Object Explorer pane, right click the server and select properties. In the pane, there should be a heading called "Connection" and in that heading a link to a new window called "View connection properties". The value next to "Server name" is the name of your server.
