How can I get the most efficiency out of my Network Server
We have a server with two large Databases on it. We have 16 workstations tapping into the server for both Database files and user documents and folders. There are two HD’s, 160gig mirrored, and 2 gigs of RAM (We run Windows Server 2003). I am thinking of reformatting the drives to partition them, dedicating two partitions for the databases (one each), another partition for the servers system files, and the final for the network users files (several gigs alone).
Any ideas on if this is the right answer? Am I going in the right direction with my ideas for better speed and efficiency?

How big are your database now? How much space are you planning on dedicating to the reformat? You have them mirrored now and that's great if anything goes wrong. Are you planning on doing the same thing after reformating? If not, what backup plans will you have in place when the server crashes?
