FYI:
This talks about GUIDs for UniqueIdentifier columns in SQLServer - what they
are, the ups and downs of using them and how to get around the major
performance hit of the path you seem to have chosen with your column type.
Not hard reading, it's a classic for DB folks and I think it might help you:

When I use GUID.NewGUID method to return a unique GUID, how is it
constructed and can I be sure it won't be duplicated. I set a key in a
database equal to a GUID which I create using GUID.NewGUID and don't want
it
to be duplicated. I would like to know what paramters are used by VB.Net
to
construct the new GUID, i.e., tick count, processor ID, etc.
