The text, ntext and image[^] data types have been deprecated for many years. You should be using varchar(max), nvarchar(max) and varbinary(max) instead.

Google "entity framework vs ado.net" to see the pros and cons of both and decide which one meets your requirements. If raw speed is a factor you may err toward ado.net, but if your code is more complex you might prefer the simplicity of EF.

Its upto you to decide, but EF 6.0 has improved a lot and have many new features. If you want to go away with writing Store Procedures and want all your operations and business logic's to be driven from C#, go for EF.
