New sql server setup

Hello all,
I am new to MSSQL, our compnay is going to be converting our current
pervasive database to mssql. It is my resposibility to setup the new
hardware.
I heard mention that for performance it is best to split up the drives that
all the data is on. We willl be purchasing a new HP MSA30 disk shelf that
holds 14 drives and I was wondering how it would be best to setup the disks
that will be going in the msa30.
We will also be putting this on a clustered server.On which Operating system you are planning to build cluster?
you will require shared disk for clustering, read more from below links: -
