Our Network Admin has setup a MS SQL 2012 server and wants the DBs setup so the database files are located on 4 different drives.
My problem here is when I try to restore a DB from a different system that only uses a single database file, it wants to bring the old file structure over with it. In the restore options, I can see the file structure it wants to use (1 database file), but I cannot change it.
Is there a way to restore the database into a new database without losing the file structure?
Thanks in advance.

You could just restore as is and Add files after restore. To Add files, right click on the database and go to Properties, then files and add.
