Re: SAN Setup Recommendations
I just met with my EMC Rep last week as we need to add my disk to our SAN. Here are the figures that he gave me on IOPS: 15K RPM - 180 IOPS (FC Drives) 10K RPM - 120 IOPS (FC Drives) 7.2K RPM - 70-80 IOPS (SATA Drives) HTH.

Currently the Exchange 2003 server is setup to have all Logs and DB's on a SAN. Before I set up the new exchange 2007 back end server, i want to make sure that the SAN is setup properly for Exchange.

Re: SAN Setup Recommendations
That I don't know. I believe they are Fujitsu Fibre Channel drives (10K and 15K) for our Clariion CX3-10. Not sure on the OEM of the SATA drives for the same. For my application it's a SAN being used for Oracle, but I'll double check those numbers. Come to think of it, it was a lunch meeting with the engineer and our sales guy, so he could have been exaggerating some. :) Thanks for the explanation.

If you can't get those, the relevant metrics are: 1] inter-track latency, 2] full-bore average read access, and 3] full-bore average write access. For Exchange 2007 database access, which is completely random, per 10 K RPM spindle you generally see something like 1] 1 ms, 2] 8 ms, and 3] 12 ms. On average, read:write is 1:1, so you average 8 + 12 = 20 / 2 = 10 ms average access. This gives you an IOPS of 1000 ms / (10 ms + 1 ms) = 91 IOPS Big difference in performance and capacity planning between 91 IOPS and 120 IOPS.

Re: Questions regarding SBS2003 POP 3 connector.
Graeme: You're in luck - I just finished setting up my POP3 connector this morning. Is the POP3 connector set up for Global Mailbox? If it isn't you need to set it up for Global Mailbox and make sure that you have Exchange Mailboxes for all the users. Example - I have a mailbox called [EMAIL PROTECTED] at my mail host. All undeliverable mail goes to that account. Then the POP3 connnector connects to that drop box, pulls in all the mail, and then looks at the To: and CC: fields to put it in the appropriate mailboxes on the SBS server. My problem with it not working, is that I spelled the POP3 account name wrong! DOH! On a similiar note - does anyone know if there is a way to change the POP3 Connector's schedule. As it stands, the shortest time between checks is 15 minutes, and I'd like to get it down to 5 minutes between checks. Can that be changed in the registry maybe? HTH.

BB User proof, WM not so much On Dec 27, 2007 9:27 AM, exchangelist@lyris.sunbelt-software.com wrote: I've started a new thread, because my manager is now asking me to create a proposal document for our Director, in order to recommend the best solution. I have a few specific questions that may or may not have been covered in the last thread. 1) Does the BB, if I have BES installed in my server room, allow sync of contacts/tasks/calendar etc. Also, just to be fair and complete, does the WM device have this capability? 2) Does the BB have the same ability to open the same types of attachments as the WM device? 3) Are there any other functionalities that one device has over the other, from an end-user perspective, that would be something I need to know about? I'm sorry if the last question is a bit vague, but this is really my first endeavor in these waters, and I'd just like to have as many real world experiences as possible to draw from to make this decision. I do understand that it's not difficult to support both, but I just need to make sure the endusers are going to be satisfied with the chosen solution.
