Hi Are you going to place the DB LUNs/LOG LUNs on different raid groups? Be aware to plan this very well, and place them on separated groups so the storage don't brake if anything happens to it. Best is to separate them on different SAN's, or maybe you can evaluate to use SCC instead or use DAS Use the Calculator, it will give you the sizing for storage Jonas Andersson MCTS: Microsoft Exchange Server 2007/2010 | MCITP: EMA 2007/2010 | MCSE/MCSA Blog: http://www.testlabs.se/blog

These requirements are the reference, so you know when the database/log size is normal “Disk Space & Performance Requirements” section in Exchange 2007 Mailbox Server Role Storage Requirements CalculatorJames Luo TechNet Subscriber Support (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/ms788697.aspx) If you have any feedback on our support, please contact tngfb@microsoft.com
