Question

I want to create multiple document libraries under the same site collection in sharepoint. However i would like to be able to specify different content databases for these document libraries – is that possible?

Example.
Site – TestSite has multiple content databases Content_1 and Content_2.
TestSite has two document libraries Documents_A and Documents_B.

Is there a way i can have Documents_A stored in Content_1 and Documents_B in Content_2?

Thanks

As far as I know, a web application can have multiple content databases, but a site collection can only be stored on a single database.

You can choose the database in which a site will be stored by using this trick.
