I have read that the recommended disk configuration is a mirrored set for the operating system and logs and a RAID 5 array for the stores. Also I've looked around on Microsoft's site for hardware and configuration recommendations but anything that I've found seems incredibly inadequate. I was wondering if anyone has any better information on this. We have about 300 mailboxes and included in that are 100 mobile users who synchronize during the day.
