However, I will take another look at the hardware and see what I can find.

NTbackup runs nightly for Exchange and that is not reporting any integrity 
errors.

Regarding the 'JET_errBadPageLink' - can you tell me is that a physical error, 
not a logical error?

The reason I started running the defrag weekly was due to recommendation from 
Symantec when installed their LiveState Recovery product 
(http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/powerquest.nsf/docid/2005091309295062)
- it recommended:
"We recommended that you regularly perform integrity checks on the database by 
running the following commands:
Eseutil /mh >C:\header.txt      Performs a header dump and pipes to a file
Eseutil /g >C:\integrity.txt    Performs an integrity check and pipes to a file
Eseutil /k >C:\checksum.txt     Creates a checksum

You should defragment the database frequently."

I'll take your recommendation and stop defrag for now. I will also uninstall 
LiveState Recovery for a month and see if that is causing the problems 
(although there documentation in above link primarily refers to corruption of 
the snapshot image being taken for backup, not the running database).

I use to think Exchange was great - I hope I can get there again.

Thanks for your help,

Regards,
  Bryce Stenberg.
