I would prefer using (ID, Status) or (Type_ID, Status) and indeed drop
single index on status (or is it FK ?).
If you put status as FIRST field in the compound index the current engine
could choose this one also for other queries where it may be bad. When using
the status as second field in the index (i assume ID and Type_ID don't have
so much duplicates) the engine cannot use this index unless TypeID or ID is
also available. Note! that FB1 still could be confused with these indices.
