Thin-provisioned LUNs for MS Exchange - Better performance?

Hello,

 

Does anyone know why TR-4681 (Best Practices Guide for Microsoft Exchange Server Using NetApp SnapCenter) recommends the following?

 

"For optimal storage performance, NetApp recommends thin provisioning and having at least 10% free space available in an aggregate hosting Exchange data."

 

Can someone explain why there is better performance with thin-provisioned LUNs? How better?

 

Regards,

Pedro Rocha
