>You shouldn’t have the same database files on the target server (restore with replace).  Also you can [enable instant file initialization on the target server to reduce the file initialization time overhead]( /sql/relational-databases/databases/database-instant-file-initialization?view=sql-server-ver16).

To relocate the database files from the target restore server, you can frame a TSQL command using the `MOVE` clauses.

If there are more than two files for the database, you can add additional move clauses to the restore query. You can also use SSMS for database recovery using `.bak` files. Learn more on [restoring an SQL database backup using SSMS]( /sql/relational-databases/backup-restore/restore-a-database-backup-using-ssms?view=sql-server-ver16).
