    At my location, we have 7000+ users on 5 Exchange servers...

    Each server:

    2 x 32gb (RAID 1): OS, 1 hot spare
    2 x 136gb (RAID 1): Logs for 1st storage group, 1 hot spare
    2 x 136gb (RAID 1): Logs for 2nd storage group, 1 hot spare
    4 x 136gb = 272gb (RAID 10): DBs for 1st storage group, 1 hot spare
    4 x 136gb = 272gb (RAID 10): DBs for 2nd storage group, 1 hot spare

    2gb RAM
    4 Xeon processors

    Works nicely for this locale...
