Hi,
Yes are correct, it will definitely slow down the server if you store large video files. Its better if you can store these files in a different location may be in the hardrive or some other location other than database.
Thanks

You can use below code snippet for good way to store video files in database is to uploading video files
Code behind for you
public partial class upload : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
protected void Btn1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (FileUpLoad2.YourFile)
{
FileUpLoad2.SaveAs(@"D:\temp\" + FileUpLoad2.FileName);
Label2.Text = "Your Video File Uploaded: " + FileUpLoad2.FileName;
}
else
{
Label1.Text = "Your Video No File Uploaded.";
}
}
}

Hi,
Definitely your application and database will have serious performance issues if you store huge videos. It is always good to store the videos in a folder and save only the video path in database. This will allows you to retrieve the video quickly without convert/reconvert and also improves whole application performance.
