Hi,
Drop is a DDL Activity without much logging.For DDL we do have minimal
logging , but its very small and used internally by database manager. If
fact don't think of any activity that is not logged.
What is you are dropping a table and server crashed. Ever wondered h ow
thinsg are soo smooth, its minimal logging which is always there to keep
things inplace.We don't need to bother for this one.

Subject: DROP TABLE??
Hi,
Does "DROP TABLE" command write all rows that get dropped in the
transaction log?
DROP TABLE is a DDL rather DML. I don't think DDL activity record data
changes in the transaction log.
Please help to confirm this. Thanks!
