Unity 4.0 - Drive locations

[vidir.kristofersson]

The below text is from the Cisco Unity Installation Guide.

I am installing Unity 4.0 on an IBM x345 server with 2 x 18 Gb disks. It will be connected to a Domino (Lotus) running on another server (all messages will be kept on that server. How should I configur the disk and if I have to split it up in all those logical drives - what would be the recommended size for each logical drive ? I will have from 2.500 - 5.000 users.
