This sounds like a test question. Here's how I'd do it:
"C" drive = 2 x 18 mirrored
"D" drive = 2 x 36 mirrored
"E" drive = 8 x 72 RAID 5 (or)
"E" drive = 4 x 72 RAID 5 x 2 (RAID 5+1, that is mirrored RAID 5 drives)
The last option is the most secure, and costly, cutting your possible
database storage in half, and is probably a little over the top for your
needs.
Install your system and boot files on C, Exchange logs on D, private and
public databases on E. Drive lettering for D and E could be interchangeable.

Hi all,
I will have 15000 users and one BE server.
What would be the best configuration for the
(8 x 72 GB, 2 x 36 GB, 2 x 18 GB) disks on the BE?
Thanks,
Monika
