I have a pretty good idea of what I need but would appreciate feedback
on an ideal drive array configuration for a Win2k network file an
e-mail server. I have (5) 9GB SCSI hard drives with a hardware array
controller.
I plan on using RAID 5 with these drives but not sure about the
logical drive structure. With 5 drives and 1 for parity, this should
allow for 36GB total storage.
¿What do you think about These? ¿Would you change anything?

C: 6GB NTFS S.O. Windows 2003
D: 34 GB NTFS Exchange Server + Applications + User Data

C: 6GB NTFS S.O. Windows 2003
D: 6GB NTFS Exchange 2003 + Applications
E: 28GB NTFS User Data

What about C: in Fat 32 ?, What about the sizes of the partitions.
Thanks for any feedback!
Regards.
