Given your situation, I would up your streaming files partition and down
your SQL partition, unless your going to be doing a LOT of data into it.
The other partitions are fine. Personally I preferred to have them all on
completely separate drives with in the server it's self. Much easier to
replace one drive that way.

Hi guys!
Looking for some input....got a new server.
Dell 2400
Win2k, SQL 2000, CFAS 4.5, WebBoards (O'Reilly)
36 gig HD
512 MB RAM
This is my proposed configuration for partitions: (yes, all num's are
rounded off, realize it's not exact)
c: 8 GIG <--- OS
d: 8 GIG <-- IIS/web folders (16 domains)
e: 10 GIG <-- SQL server
f: 10 GIG <-- streaming files
We are going to use Windows Media player to stream some small powerpoint
presentations to a small group of people (very low usage, maybe 1-5 people a
day, at the most)
Haven't done a full install of a web server in awhile, (other than
development, and all on one drive), so my partition thinking is extremely
rusty....
Am I ok with this configuration? Any other suggestions?
(I have NO OPTIONS - which means while I wish I could put SQL server on it's
own machine, it's not going to happen. Likewise for the streaming files.
Luckily, it's really a low traffic server.)
Many, many thanks and a blueberry muffin to boot!
Erika
