1)I'll have 3 core apps, should they run on different servers or is it safe to run everything from the SQL server (RAID 1+5 configuration)?

2)How do I size a server if running everthing on one box?

Any input would be appreciated.

1a...apps...web or vb/c?...
web...put iis on different box.
other...don't care

1b....safe on 1. could go down VM route if required to segment logical servers from physical servers...allows stop/starting of services independant of each other.

2...what size db's, trans per min, connections, db + traffic growth?
i can't answer the q, but other might from the information supplied.
