What is the best place for storing uploaded images, SQL database or disk file system?

_x000D_ _x000D_ I'm writing an application that allows users to upload images onto the server. I expect about 20 images per day all jpeg and probably not edited/resized. (This is another question, how to resize the images on the server side before storing. Maybe someone can please drop a .NET resource for that in the comment or so). I wonder now what the best place for storing uploaded images is. Store the images as a file in the file system and create a record in a table with the exact path to that image. Or, store the image itself in a table using an "image" or "binary data" data type of the database server. I see advantages and disadvantages in both. I like a) because I can easily relocate the files and just have to change the table entry. On the other hand I don't like storing business data on the web server and I don't really want to connect the web server to any other datasource that holds business data (for security reasons) I like b) because all the information is in one place and easily accessible by a query. On the other hand the database will get very big very soon. Outsourcing that data could be more difficult.
