Hi...

Well I am somewhat new into DBA stuff just but have been wondering about VLDBs and need to put in some research on the same. I have opted for SQL Server as the starting point well to be honest 2008 will be the choice but not neglecting the 2005 as well and their migrations too. I would appreciate if some of you help me out with refernces for beginner to expert level..how / from where shall I start...books or links...any suggestion how to go about the basicc concepts and then hone up to advanced skills...requirements to ramp up to this whole new thing.....
But I am not totally a novice or new bie I am looking for the refernces in designing and creating VLDBs using SQL Server 2008/2005. I will appreciate if you can provide me with some refernces tutorial books on the same. I have to do some research on designs for 5-6 TB of databases using SQL Server 2005/2008 or will there be any issues if there is any infrastrcure designed for 1-2 TB using 2005 to migrate to 2008 and then handle 5-6 TBs of data.

Please help
