SCR - Number of Databases   

I read this in article - 
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb676502(EXCHG.80).aspx

As with LCR and CCR, SCR-enabled storage groups cannot contain more than one 
database. You cannot enable SCR for a storage group that contains more than 
one database, and you cannot add a second or subsequent database to an 
SCR-enabled storage group.

This does not sound right to me??  Am I reading something wrong?

I am going to have Exchange 2007 installed and migrate 3 servers to it.  i 
am going to have 5 Storage Groups and 5 Mialbox Stores in each (25 Databases) 
 you mean to tell me i cant use this technology?  What are the Databases they 
are referring to?  I cant see how this word work unless the organization is 
tiny?  Help me understand please?

Re: SCR - Number of Databases   

With Exchange 2007, each server running the Enterprise Edition can have a 
max of 50 databases per server.  When using continuous replication, each 
storage group enabled for continuous replication can only have one database 
in it.  Thus, if you want to enable all 25 of your databases for continuous 
replication, you can do this, but you'd put each database in its own storage 
group (for a total of 25 storage groups and 25 databases).

Hope this helps.
