Hi,

Me using SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition for the long time. If I want to make sure my SQL Server 2005 can store more data, me just add the hard disk.

How about SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition 3.5? Me heard, this SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition 3.5 have a limited space to store the data? About 1GB. It that true? We cannot add more hard disk to store data more than 1GB in this SQL Server 2005 CE.

Need explanation

If you are using Standard Edition, then why would you want to downgrade to Compact Edition?

I want to apply ADO.NET Sync Services using Microsoft Sync Framework.

Me see the sample, a lot of it using SQL Server Compact Edition at client.

According to the following link, compact edition has a limitation of 128MB on mobile devices and 256MB on desktop computers: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/920700

Adding more disks does not solve that problem, since the limitation is in the storage engine.
