Last I checked, it wasn't supported to run BES on an Exchange server (but I don't keep up with BES - that may have changed). Regards, Michael B.

I would agree with the mirror for the OS but then I would not put a DC on the same box as Exchange unless both were virtual or you are running SBS. Jon On Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 9:07 AM, Aaron T.

Being the "just good enough to be dangerous" type at anything other than Cisco, I thought I would pose this question to the group for some insight. I am in the process of building our new DC. We are a small shop of about 75 employees, so we host AD, Exchange, File Sharing, and BlackBerry Server off of this one server. My question is. how would you guys setup your hard drives in this bad boy for optimal results (primarily for Exchange)? Right now, from the factory it came with 2 x 73Gb SATA and 3 x 146Gb SATA in no RAID. I was thinking of mirroring the 73Gb HDs together for the OS install, but after that I'm not sure what would be best. We have roughly 80Gb of crap that we'll need to store for File Sharing. Any thoughts? Thanks all! Aaron ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
