Looking for advise on installing Exchange Server 2013 in a virtual (Hyper-V) environment or dedicated physical server installation. Also, when setting up the data storage, what's the best practices for using SMB3.0 vs direct storage SAN. We're leaning to shared storage using SMB3.0 rather the SAN (very costly) and can use a dedicated 2012 Server with 4TB of storage (RAID 10) with (shares).
Thank you,
William
