Well, I'm pretty sure I've got some extras from old servers and I was setting out to clean up the old ones. For instance I have 5 OWAScratchPad and 5 StoreEvents. But, when I tried to determine which ones were active, I found that neither of my database GUIDs matched the GUIDs on the names of the public folders, which leads me to believe they're not needed at all.
