Two quickest ways to find file information of a given database

If you want to check the name of the files and their respective sizes for the given database then following are two quick tsql scripts:

1. Use sp_helpfile

This stored procedure returns the file information for the selected database e.g.

USE AdventureWorks;

GO

EXEC sp_helpfile;

GO

It will return the resultset similar to following

By default, this view returns a column called size but this is actually the size in 8KB pages therefore, to get the exact size in KB, as returned by sp_helpfile, multiply it by 8 as mentioned in above query.
