The fundamentals are the same, except that since you can have multiple storage groups, you should have a separate physical volume for each set of log files. You could also have separate a separate physical volume for each database, but the need for that is something you'd need to determine--it's not a general recommendation.
You change the location of the log files in the properties page of the storage group, and locations and/or names the database files in the properties page of the database. Exchange System Manager takes care of the dismount, move and mount process.
