Installing MS Sql server 2008. Need advice on the disk partition and how to split up the tempdb, userdb and log files. <br />
<br />
I currently have 4 partitions on the server. the C:\ drive has the OS and I don't plan to store anything else there. the D:\ drive would have the SQL server application installed. I would like the optimal performance and would like tempdb and log files separated if that's necessary. <br />
<br />
Please advise. <br />
Thanks.
