exch 2010 database size management
In Exchange 2003, I would create multiple databases and set policy limits to keep those databases to a reasonable size for restore purposes. This resulted in having quite a few data stores.
Is the same logic true for Exch 2010? Having many database sized to achieve a recovery time objective? Im currently running DAG too. Any database size best practice advice is welcome.

I've heard that unlike Exch 2k3, you can keep Tlogs on the same Raid5 partition as the database. True?
RAID1/10 is better for logs. Check more from below link

Going to open a new post with 1 last question requarding Tlogs
I agree with MegaNuk3. Secondly, bigger db's - corruption risks are more, as MS still unable to do any changes at db level. Still Jet db version.
Small db's will give better performance and less time for restore.
