I currently have all my exchange 2k3 mailboxes in 1 information store. I would like to make multiple stores and move some mailboxes to the new stores for backup and restoration purposes. I was wondering what the best way to set this up would be. Should I keep all the .edb and .stm files (for the new stores) in the current MDBDATA folder or should I make seperate folders to hold these files?

It's best to create different folders, that makes it easier for you Create additional storage groups and devide all databases over these storage groups Deli
