Quick question as I've never been presented with this option before. Client has existing GoDaddy hosting & doesn't want to move.

The purpose of the Windows file DSN (data source name) is to centrally store your database connection information. If you have many Web pages that require database access, this feature enables you to simply reference the path of the file DSN instead of having to provide the database connection details on every page.
Note: If you use file DSNs with a Linux shared hosting account, they must connect to a ColdFusion website.
Hope that helps,
John
