Exchange 2013 Server Build
I'm building an Exchange 2013 server to replace our current 2010 Exchange.
The new Exch server will be running Server 2012 R2, hardware wise the following:
Intel Xeon X3460 Quad Core @ 2.8GHz
32GB RAM
Intel RAID Controller RS2BL080
Firstly, would the hardware be sufficient for Exch 2013?
Secondly; obviously C will be used as the Windows drive and for whatever else needs to be installed, then I was thinking that E would be used for log files and F for the edb
Would this be sufficient or has there be drastic changes to the suggested storage config for Exchange 2013?
I have read up on some stuff, namely Exchange 2013 storage configuration options but would like some feedback from people that have a working environment.
Our Exchange environment isn't big, 100 mailboxes, 1 server (multi role), we probably average about 10 000 emails a month.

RAID 1 = C: 2x 1TB SATA
RAID 1 = E: 2x 500GB SATA
RAID 10 = F: 4x 600GB SAS
