How does all this change if i look to virtualize each role.. i'm
leaning more towards virtualizing each role.

A database, unless you want to kill performance, needs a proper drive
setup.

I do have one mirror for the OS.. the data was on raid5.. for
virtualization.. i figured i'd create another mirror.. if i had 5
virutal servers running.. i'd run 3 on the raid 5 and 2 on the mirror
set...

In terms of databases and VS.. what is typically done here.. is it ok
to have a sql server inside a virtual machine.. also.. on the virtual
servers.. is it typically setup the way a real server would be.. ie:
c drive for OS.. another D for data.. then an E say for logs.. or does
this even matter in the virtual sense..
