I no longer have access to an exch console for a company, but when I was it was always under 2, IIRC. That was ~1600 mailboxes.
A quick looksee at my home exchange server with 4 mailboxes has a SIS ratio of 1.310. ;-) -sc From: James Rankin [mailto:kz2...@googlemail.com] Sent: Friday, May 29, 2009 9:36 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Amusing Mine is about 1.7 for 500 users on EX2007 2009/5/29 David Mazzaccaro <david.mazzacc...@hudsonhhc.com> Mine is at 40.

Not sure I like it. Disks may be cheap, but eliminating SIS would cause storage requirements to increase by an order of magnitude. The OP's situation is a prime example... Suddenly a 9 MB storage requirement becomes 2.7 GB storage requirement (if my math is right).

If it doesn't use it, does it use some similar technology? Or would the OP's 9 MB file now take 3000x9 MB of space?
