I'm considering splitting our current Exchange configuration into 3 storage groups to enhance our recoverability. I plan to define the storage groups by criticality, create the new storage groups and mailbox stores, then begin migrating mailboxes, moving the least critical first. Are there any issues about which I should be aware?
You'll reduce your SIS. If you do it by criticality, I assume that means the most important people in 1 SG etc. Guess which one will go down? SGs are generally split for size. Hit 50GB (IOPS permitting) and then create a new one and split by department to retain SIS.

Single instance storage. A mail sent to several users will be stored only once pr. mail store.
