I am a hardware guy setting up a new server for our applications folks and have some questions...anyone?
Server Specs:
Windows Server 2003 Enterprise
SQL Server 2000 Enterprise
Quad 3.0 GHz Xeon Processors
12 GB RAM
Two - Internal RAID 1 Arrays - 68 GB & 136 GB
One - External RAID 5 Array - 1.1 TB (5 x 300 GB)
10 GB - C: partition on first RAID 1 Array (OS)
58 GB - D: partition on first RAID 1 Array (Apps)
136 GB - E: partition on second RAID 1 Array (SQL Logs)
1.1 TB - F: partition on external RAID 5 Array (Data)
Questions:
Pagefile -
-which partition should it go on?
-what size should it be (custom, system managed or none?)
/3GB switch:
-should it be used in this case?
