I would suggest the following since you have 6 Drives:
2 X RAID 1 for OS
2 X RAID 1 for Log Files
2 X RAID 1 for Databases

Hi,
I have read through all I can find in this newsgroup and elsewhere and
have decided on the following RAID setup for our new Exchange 2000 server.
2 x 36 GB disks Raid 1 for O/S and log files
4 x 146 GB disks Raid 1+0 (Is that the same as RAID 10?) for
Information Store
Comments and suggestions will be appreciated.
John
