• Memory manangement on 64bit version of SQL Server 2005

  I noticed that in the x64 version of Management Studio we have the 'Enable AWE' memory. Why? In Books online it states that '64-bit applications do not require AWE because access to memory is not limited to 4 GB' If that is the case why have the option available on the 64bit version of the product? What does it do? Posted Feb 21 2006, 09:46 AM by StevenWhite with no comments
