Going from server 2000 to server 2003

[Guest]

In training for server 2000, I was told that active directory needed 3
physical drives. I have checked the sizes, over the course of 1 year, of the
ntds.dit, ntds and sysvol and none of them are over 200 mbs. With going to
server 2003 on a different server can I use 1 drive with 3 separate
partitions for ntds.dit, ntds and sysvol instead of 3 physical drives?

Hello,
absolutely, splitting it up on physical disks is only a recommendation for
optimize performance on heavy loaded domain controllers with many
operations.

They can all reside on a single partition on a single drive if you like.
