Exchange 2000 and Server 2003   
1)  I am presently running Exchange 2000 on a Windows 2000 Server computer.  
If I upgrade the server OS to WIndows Server 2003, will that force an upgrade 
to Exchange 2003?

2) Because I am running out of space on the Exchange partition, could I 
upgrade to Windows Server 2003, add a new HDD, and then span the Exchange 
files over to the new HDD?  Would I want to do that?  Why or why not?

Thanks in advance for your help!!

You must upgrade exchange first. Exchange 2000 is not supported on windows
server 2003

You can't span the exchange files over multiple drives as such. You can
however move the edb file (I assume that this is the largest file in the
exchange database?)  to a new set of disks - see
