I dont understand what problem your facing for last two days.
Lots of articles here about Server.MapPath (even i replied your same post two days ago) and File upload.

Server.MapPath("path") is available only for you web application directory. If you are trying to map any another local drive it may not work.

try like this

string virtualFolder = "~/Upload/";
string physicalFolder = Server.MapPath(virtualFolder);
FileUpload1.SaveAs(physicalFolder + FileUpload1.FileName);
It will upload file to server. For this you need to create Folder in root directory of your application as "Upload".

if you want to insert this file in database then only go for byte array. If you want to upload file to server then file upload control will do all this conversion work for you no need to convert to byte array. just use fileupload.saveas("path") to upload file to server.
