New Build
After some advise. Requirements are Domain server, RDS Server, SQL Server. I have an old server I was running all on before with VM's. I am buying 2 new servers right now. Undecided should I use all three servers?? Was going to use the older one for AD. And the two others for SQL and RDS. Suggestions? ?? Is this the way go???

If you are going to virtualize, then run everything virtual.
So no, not RDS physical and DC virtual.
Physical OS is *just* for virtualization. Can be ESX or windows with hyper-V or another platform.
Then RDS as one VM and a DC as another VM. But don't mod other roles on the physical OA if it is handling virtualization duties.

Ok thanks for the advice cliff.

So best option is maybe first server with RDS physical and domain controller in Virtual. Second server just for SQL????
