I want to install Exchange, what are the system requirements needed such as type of RAID array, adapters, processors etc. And also, can we install Exchange on the same device where domain controller is?

Lastly, what are the preparations needed for the Active Directory schematic representation before installing Exchange? Any ideas?

Thank you.

Hi,

You need an Intel i7 processors 4GB of RAM 1GB graphic card and a compatible motherboard. An operating system like windows xp sp3 or windows vista windows 7   DVD ROM LED monitor and a network device for local or network compatible. It's better to parting your hard disk so that you will have an extra space.
