RE: [ActiveDir] NTDIS Size

[Ayers, Diane]

Breaking the DB, logs and SysVol into separate logical partitions on the same physical spindles doesn't buy you much.  Your still sharing the same spindles, head and I/O amongst the three logical partitions.  I'd just create a D: volume and be done with it but that's just my opinion.   Diane From: George Arezina [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2003 2:33 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] NTDIS Size Unfortunately, Management wants us to abide by their budget for the year. Therefore, we have to be within budget goals when it comes to spending money on hardware.   How about this hdd configuration:   First Mirror: System Partition (18GB)   Second Mirror: 72GB broken into D, E, F volumes.

I plan to install two mirrored drives on my server. One Mirror will be the system partition (18GB) and the second mirror will be 72GB where my ndts.dit database will be located.
