Drive partitions/Volumes for AD domain controller.

's Computer Specifications

Hello,

I'm wondering what is the best practice for partitioning drives when using
AD on a DC?

Using 2003 server, should I put the OS on a separte drive partition? Details?

Thanks much,

MP

Servers should always have two drives: One for the OS, one
for data. Amongst other things this makes it easy to create
an image of the server partition and perform a quick recovery
in case things go wrong.
