This tutorial from Microsoft Exchange MVP Mark Arnold examines LCR, SCR and CCR and where each technology best fits in the Exchange Server 2007 environment. It also covers how these replication methods work with one another and some pros and cons of each for Exchange Server storage and recoverability. You'll also gain an understanding of how a SAN could reduce or eliminate the need for server-level resiliency by either providing snapshot backups of Exchange databases or replicating storage volumes between SANs.
