Status: offline 		How big is too big when talking about Information Store size to Hard Disk space? In other words, if I have a 36GB HD that houses my Information Store, at what point should I start thinking about migrating my IS to a bigger disk set? Currently, my IS is 17GB (EDB and STM)on a 36GB drive. Should I start being concerned and start thinking about a bigger disk set?

Thanks! "[Confused]"

How do you defrag the database in Exchange 2003?

Thanks!
