Window 2012 partition

What's the normal size assigned to Window 2012 C drive ? Is it common to just format the whole RAID in C: and install everything there for file and application servers ?

I like to give the system drive at least 100GB. But I definitely like to keep the data on another partition at least. Often on other drives or arrays.

I don't think so but you do need to manage the space. You can clean up the SxS folder and make sure applications are writing to the proper volume. If you don't want to worry about it and you have the space to provision, then give it more. I suppose I have the luxury of dealing with LUNs and virtual disks that can be expanded if needed.
