Thanks guys for quick reply but I'm not looking for this.
currently I am using following method

protected void btnUpload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (FileUpload1.HasFile)
{
try
{
string fullpath = Server.MapPath("~/UploadFiles/");
string fileName = FileUpload1.FileName;
string RandomName = Path.GetRandomFileName() + Path.GetExtension(fileName);
string Size = FileUpload1.FileContent.Length.ToString();
fullpath += RandomName;
FileUpload1.SaveAs(fullpath);

con = new SqlConnection(objcon.ConnectionString());
con.Open();
Query = "Insert into Records values('" + fileName + "','" + RandomName + "'," + Size + "," + Session["LoginID"].ToString() + ",GetDate(),'" + Convert.ToString(Session["UserName"]) + "')";
com = new SqlCommand(Query, con);
com.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
lblErrMsg.Text += ex.ToString();
}
finally
{
con.Close();
BindGrid();
}

}
}

In web config I already set these things.

httpruntime executiontimeout="43200"
maxrequestlength="104856"

sessionstate mode="InProc"
cookieless="false"
timeout="43200"

but I think is not a best way to upload large files on server.
So that's why I want to know something better than this.
