Just curious,
what does the FAT for a system part get you? This must have been mentioned
before, but since we are on the subject...limits to 2gb? Easier to recover?
Thanks
Pat

P.S.
FAT for System, NTFS for LOG and DATA.

Okay,
Here is how the God's of Exchange trained me @ Marriott
International. Mirror your System and Log drives, RAID 5 for your
Data. This is the fastest and most efficient.

Thanks for the input- but there are performance/tolerance
advantages if you use RAID 1 and 0 for the OS and
Transaction logs (?), and RAID 5 for the IS/DS. I am
looking for that exact config for my 7 SCSI drives.

3 9gb drives should do just fine, same disk space AND
fault tolerance. If you chose to use software level
raid you would lose alot of proc. time to it. Hardware
level RAID 5 with todays RAID controllers you should
not see any loose in performance.

Subject: 5.5 Raid Config
I need to set up a new Exchange Server and am
looking for anything that Microsoft has written
about Exchange 5.5: RAID/Performance. I am being
asked why I can just buy a single 18G SCSI disk
instead of multiple disks with mirroring and RAID
5. (Also want to know why (3) 9G Scsi's with RAID
5 isn't good enough for me.)
I know this has been BEAT TO DEATH, but could
someone please direct me to anything that MS has
written on this subject so that I can print it
out? I am in the Disaster Recovery White Paper
and am not finding the suggested Config. It's not
in my New Riders 5.5 book either.
Thanks in advance.
