I am pleased to announce that the Exchange 2007 Storage Calculator has been released.  This calculator is a culmination of over several months of effort between the Exchange Product Group, the Exchange Center of Excellence, and MSIT.  This calculator focuses on identifying the storage requirements (I/O performance and capacity) and the optimal LUN layout based on a set of input factors following the best practices identified in the following literature:
