Do you mean the apps themselves, or their data files? I've installed a couple of SBS 2K servers and don't remember any option to change the location of ISA, Exchange, etc (but then again, I wasn't looking for it, either).
You can, however, change the location of the applications' data files, which is what I think you are asking. I don't think different controllers are warranted, but you will want to use separate spindles for Exchange and SQL log files and data stores. This is to facilitate disaster recovery. If memory serves, the last SBS box I set up had a pair of 36GB drives and a pair of 72GB drives (each pair RAID1). 8GB of the 36GB pair was the C: drive, and the remainder used for Exchange logs (if it were running SQL, it's logs would go there as well). The 72GB pair was split into two 36GB partitions. One was exclusively Exchange store. The other was everything else (applications, home directories, profiles, ISA cache, etc.) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bowles, John (OIG/OMP) Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2003 1:25 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: OT: SBS Setup All, I'm trying to figure out what is the best design (hardware wise) for a SBS server that I will be setting up here in the future. I'm trying to figure out what is the best way to maximize the server's resources with the setup. One question I do have is. When you setup SBS can you point all the different applications (E2K3, SQL, Sharepoint etc) do different file locations? I tried asking the MS Conceirge people but they didn't know as well. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to maybe seperate some apps and put them on their own controllers. What do you recommend?
