I have heard stories about how to properly configure a NT/2000 web server to optimize performance. Is is better to put the system on one drive, IIS on another and logs/application on a raid? Or is it better to run with everything on one drive?

We have always found that splitting the OS, IIS and further
logs and apps onto separate RAID protected drives
imporves performance and reduces the amount of hands
that need access to all root drives. Running all on one drive
has never been productive for us even though it is the
easiest way to set up a Windows web server, Better to take
the extra time and also see the following link:
