One final question..... Can we put the backup/image files anywhere or would we need to keep them on the same server as the SQL instance? I'm thinking of putting them onto one our fileservers (there's more room) in a secure folder but not sure that's possible. / comments

Thanks for the heads-up. As far as I know, we have a maintenance job on the original server which takes care of index rebuilds, etc. As we currently use mirroring/snapshotting to transfer the data to a single server, I don't think that will be an issue. From what's been put on here, I think the plan will be:- Create backup of original database(s) Make image(s) from backup Clone image(s) to appropriate server(s) as per my original post. / comments

Brilliant, thanks for that. So, as we will only be reading from the clones, they should stay at 50MB each. / comments

Thanks for that, I'll pass it to our technical server team. Just out of curiosity, can you tell me how much room the following would take up when cloned:- Database A - 580GB Database B - 651GB Database C - 38GB Database D - 22GB We would need a single image of each with one clone of each as per my initial question. I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but we would be compressing the backups (SQLServer 2012 Enterprise) using the built-in compression algorithm. Regards Richard / comments
